Quartz watch conundrum.

[@davidstewart3868]

I have several automatics but I find myself wearing my quartz and solar powered quartz watches more often. They are very accurate and reliable. My Bulova Lunar Pilot, with the high frequency quartz movement is incredibly accurate.

[@watchstyles]

Yep, for sure, more reliable and hardly ever have to worry about setting times

I have a Grand Seiko quartz watch. I love it! It is like a tool watch with a beautiful blue dial, and nice GMT hand. I love that I can pick it up and wear it any time. I also own mechanical watches. And I love those too. But it's hard to keep them wound all the time.

That's definitely a great watch!! It's hard to keep them wound and for me it's sometimes nerve racking to screew back a crown. I always worry I may strip the threads 🫣

quartz = confidence

[@watchstyles]

🤔 I never thought of it like that!! You are absolutely 💯 right!!!

[@gz7587]

Confidence that you know your watch is actually telling the right time every time!

I really like your taste in watches. I’d wear almost all those. That Omega with the triangle inlays is gorgeous. Like many watch enthusiasts, I was biased against quartz watches initially. I had to wear a few mechanical watches before I truly could appreciate what makes quartz watches desirable. I like how thin they can be, I like their accuracy, and I like their lighter weight. Don’t get me wrong, I like mechanical watches too, but my two favorite watches in my collection are quartz. A vintage and a modern Seiko. I’m glad that quartz watches are mostly ignored by watch enthusiasts. It makes them more affordable.

Thanks!! You're right!! Because alot of enthusiasts don't like quartz, that makes them more affordable. At least for now🤔

That white seamaster with the stainless bezel is the business.

I have 2 quartz omegas. A blue bond with red seamaster like yours and an electric blue. Thin, reliable, lighter, and the same build quality. Looking to add a black Peter Blake as well. Have a BB58 and while I love it, it’s missing the rugged tool aspect of those Big Triangle Omegas

[@watchstyles]

Those are all amazing watches!!

I like quartz watches for the grab and go factor. My most worn watch is my Seiko SNE573P1 solar quartz.

[@watchstyles]

Absolutely!! Just simple!

[@minimalistmaverick]

yep! I work blue collared jobs. So i don't even get a chance to wear my nice automatic watch. then the weekend comes and i don't feel like setting the time and date every time. So out of pure convenience i've realized i'm better off just getting a nice solar quartz. and save the automatic for special occassions

Sagzs081/083 cured my addiction. Also got a Tudor/Omega/Cartier. Feel what you are saying strongly. You are a cool MF. Keep up the most relatable watch talk I've seen on YT. Big ups, Playa.

[@watchstyles]

Hey, thank you very much!!

[@wastedaga1n]

Notice all these watch 'reviewers' suddenly doing Erebus watches. Blah, Can't trust any of them. Keep up the good work. @@watchstyles
