Suggestions?

A few cfi's i know have the citizen one, that is like 300 bucks.
They like it, but it's bulky

I thought hard about getting a Navihawk last year when I was in the Bahamas,
but it was still $270, so I didn't. Well, that's not the whole story, I
didn't because it was a big ol' chunk.

Right now, I wear a Timex Expedition. It has a bright white analog face,
very legible numbers, an indiglo backlight, and a rotating bezel that I use
to mark checkpoints. I got it as a gift about 8 years ago and the damn thing
won't quit. I've gone through two bands and it's on its second battery.
Secretly, I've been wishing it would break so that I could get a new one,
but it just won't. The only thing it doesn't have (that I wish it did) is a
second time window for displaying Zulu time. I have the hardest time with
METAR/TAF because I have to mentally think through the time zone conversion,
so that little extra time window would be nice. I think the AOPA watch is
pretty nice, but it's still a little big.

Oh, and about the E6B on the face, I don't think that is very useful, so I
just use the real thing. The right tool for the job.
