Top 7 Toughest Watches For The End Of The World Or Zombie Apocalypse: The Best Options $50 To $10k
Published on Feb 20, 2018Top 7 Toughest Watches For The End Of The World Or Zombie Apocalypse – The Best Options $50 To $10K
In today’s video I round up the 7 toughest watches that would serve you best in an end-of-civilisation scenario. No matter the budget or end of days event (alien invasion, rampaging Godzilla, giant asteroid, nuclear war, or zombie apocalypse), these choices will have the Gentry keeping time in any situation!
We start with a look at my favourite mil-spec watch, the TSAR & GSAR from the legendary Canadian brand Marathon. Next I discuss the useful practicality of the Casio Protrek PRW-3000 series that could save your life. I then share my personal choice, none other than the trusty ceramic Submariner by Rolex. I follow up with the Sinn UX, perhaps one of the toughest watches ever made and the pinnacle of German ingenuity.
The German theme continues with the sun powered Nomos Sonnenuhr, followed by the ever relied upon and Japanese invented G-shock. Tough as nails as these timepieces all are, there can only be one winner and that title goes to the Swiss with the Victorinox INOX, the only watch in the world that can survive being run over by a 64 ton tank and much, much more!
What would your end of the world horological choice be? Share your selection with your fellow doomsday preppers in the comments below!
