I would argue that pretty much any mechanical watch isn't about quality as a timepiece these days. Quartz watches work really well for keeping the time, honestly better than any mechanical watch ever will. But that's ok - I still love my mechanical watches out of sheer appreciation for the craftsmanship and engineering that goes into such things. They have their own appeal.
- MrSkelter 2y agoNASA still specify the best analog watch they tested (twice because when congress found out it wasn’t American they made them do it again only to get the same result). If you are in a critical situation and surrounded by electronics an analog watch can survive conditions like power failure and temp electronics cannot. Irrelevant to business people but as a safety feature and emergency backup something fully mechanical and accurate could save your life.
