When you say digital, do you mean just digital LCD display, or digitally controlled watch altogether?
I'm probably just the opposite. I don't think I've ever worn a purely analog watch. http://www.vanguardsoh.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif My "gotta have at least one expensive watch" geek watch is this one (http://www.tissot.ch/?mod_collection/colid_0003/famid_0001/subid_0002/refid_T33_1_588_51/action_select). The hands are arranged in analog time keeping fashion, but it's still all completely digitally controlled and still has a tiny LCD display.
My everyday watch is a cheapy Timex I got at Walmart over 13 years ago. I've gone through 4 wrist bands and 2 batteries with the thing and it just won't die.
My watches have no Digital displays.
My grandfather is a recognized fellow in the Clock Makers association. Even at almost 90, he is very active in repairing and building his own clocks. He also collects pocket watches and has quite a few from the 1800's. I grew up helping him take apart and fix clocks and so the beauty of clocks, with their gears, springs, and hands, just appeal to me on a very personal level.
