I have had a Stauer Titanium Atomic wristwatch for 6 years.

Never had a problem.  Never have had to set it.  Still on
the original battery.  Automatic DST.  Analog dial
for hours and minutes...  digital display for seconds and
month/date.

It is always in step with WWV...  ;-)

I have  been happy with the Casio Waveceptor watches. They can display  UTC.

They seem to reliably set themselves between midnight and 3AM each  morning
when I'm wearing them here in Maryland, more reliably than the  (non-PSK)
WWVB wall clocks.

The Casio WV58A-1AVCR is a plastic LCD  watch for $28 that lasts a couple
years. The face scuffs easily and the  band only lasts a little more than a
year before needing  replacement.

I upgraded to the Metal-body-metal-band Casio  WVA-M640D-1ACR almost a year
ago and am very happy. Analog display for  local time, and the LCD display
can show UTC. About $90.
