I have quite a few fairly 'fancy' watches, the type I used when I had to wear a suit everyday for work. I just about never wear them now.
Instead I have a Casio G-Shock on my wrist that uses a solar rechargeable battery and checks the atomic clock reference everyday (or sooner, if I choose to do so during the day). Its plenty rugged for rough outdoor activities including shooting my big bore handguns. Keeps accurate time down to the second (I check it against a couple other atomic clocks we have).

I havent checked in a long time, but I'm sure some of my 'fancy' watches' batteries have likely expired. Doesn't matter - - - this G-Shock does a better job - giving me the time under any conditions & without any hassles - than any of them.
