I've always been a big fan of digital watches. Mine is getting old, and I'm considering an upgrade. Does anybody have a "really cool/useful" watch that they would recommend (ideally, that can be ordered online)?
I've always been partial to the binary watch[1] and the Rosendahl Watch[2] (but not enough to actually buy either one for myself -- I wear a non-digital watch myself[3].) Also, I know a few people who are wearing iPod Nano's on their wrist as watches and seem to like it.
I have one, and it's pretty nice. Haven't done a whole lot with it except revamp the chronograph function more to my liking for my workouts, though. The 915 MHz frequency band is limiting; a 2.4 GHz 802.11 transceiver could be much more interesting.
The large face scratches easily; it's just acrylic and not glass. Easy enough to buff out, though.

If you're into E-Inky things, like I am, then this one's pretty cool: http://www.atysdesign.com/proddetail.php?prod=watch_digital_...
Touch screen, and about as fashionably acceptable as you're going to get out of a digital: http://www.kennethcole.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=42189...
If you don't care about fashion, then this one's a winner: http://uncrate.com/stuff/casio-databank/
