Watch Choice For Survival: Top Pick For Deserted Island Scenario

If you are anything like me, you have seriously considered what you would do in a survival situation on a deserted island. Do I ever anticipate being in this situation? Well no, but as a dedicated lover of the survivalist genre (from Robinson Crusoe to Castaway), I do take the time to ponder such issues. Likely or not, it makes for good conversation, and an interesting tactical decision, thinking about what watch would be perfect. Let’s see what some of the considerations you need to take when choosing your island adventure watch. You’ll need a rugged, long lasting watch, with functions that will be helpful during everyday endeavors. Under the direst of scenarios, you are going to be stuck on this island for a long time, even forever. You can never anticipate what is going to happen to your watch, but you want something that can take just about anything, keep running, and provide you with as much flexibility as possible. This is not a job for a fashion watch, or even your base level diving watch. You’ll need something to survive; sand, water, heat, cold, moisture, shock, and years of constant use. Further, you need something easy to use and reliable. If it is losing too many minutes, or if it stops working, it is just another island trinket, or fishing weight.
