My Breitling Aerospace has lasted well for about 5 years now. It's light (titanium case, leather strap) simple (only one bezel, no buttons, so therefore able to be operated competently by me) and has no light so night flying is always cancelled. Advertised heavily a while ago as THE aviators watch, but falls short in one area. If you pull about 6'G' just as the minute hand is about to click forward, it can move backwards! Thats how my digital display got to be different from the analogue display by one minute. The Breitling folks were very quiet about that one. They admitted it could happen, and no, they don't advertise the fact. Wonder why..?
