路Traditional pick for me is the Speedmaster. It went to the Moon, and was used to time critical phases of spaceflight. If it's not one of the top picks here at OF, I'll be surprised.
My modern day pick, and overall "tool watch" choice would be the Skywalker X-33. People pan the Skywalker, but I think it's an improvement to the (still praiseworthy) 1990s X-33. As a pilot, the "Skywalker's" outstanding accuracy and features make it a breeze to track local, GMT, and "where-I-am-headed" time at the push of a button. No hacking or resetting necessary, and as a bonus, it's the great grandbaby of the original Speedy. The bi-directional bezel is a blessing when I need to track a particular time, but am momentarily too busy to write anything down. For anyone in a skyfaring profession, it's hard to argue with a watch that was designed by an astronaut.

路路Omega Qualified WatchmakerNot hate but it's not something I would wear. For me, there's too much going on with the dial seemingly trying to make up for the case.
For me it depends a bit on the colour - the orange is sometimes just too much, but there were variations that I could easily wear, like the blue version...
Cheers, Al

Absolutely no criticism of the watch or maker ... it's just personal taste.

路Any chronograph works for me for most tasks. If it's work that involves industrial machinery, I take my watch off anyways due to moving parts and the mindset of working in manufacturing plants.

路From the pics you can tell this is my go-to watch
There have been very few days in the last 20 years when this wasn't on my wrist.

Stowa Ikarus 40mm. I love everything about this watch. Easy to read, simple, and excellent strap.
or
Tudor BB 36mm. This one has been hogging a lot of time lately. This had me at snowflake. This one deserves more attention from the 40mm< crowd.
