This was the first video I watched in weeks and it made me smile for the first time in a few days. Growing up I always remember my dad wearing a quartz diver, a Tag Heuer 1500 ( I know how you feel about Tag Heuer lol) that he ended up giving to me a few years back when he picked up a much newer Tag. I have so many great memories of him wearing that watch and I'll cherish it forever. I just wanted to thank you for making content that can make me smile during these trying times.

@jamess81754 жыл бұрын
Fully agree quartz watches are far more reliable, accurate and hassle free than mechanical ones. Two more points to add on top of what were being mentioned. First, solar powered watches are preferred, not just quartz. That is to prevent waterproof seal from being broken, say a G-Shock. I have experiences of having my G-Shocks' battery replaced and learnt that they are best done at the authorised Casio Service Centre because only they will reseal the waterproofing after a battery change. Another ordinary watch shop will only simply replace the battery without re-applying waterproof seal to the caseback, meaning you can't swim with the watch anymore. Of course the Casio Service Centre charges a lot more than the regular watchmaker. Therefore, a solar powered watch is ideal to avoid tempering with a watch's caseback. Secondly, a watch with automatic time calibration further sweetens the deal as it eliminates the need for regular adjustment, say once a month or 2 months. Watches with Multi-band 6, GPS or at least with Bluetooth connectivity ensure you don't have to re-adjust the time, date or timezone whatsoever. Brilliant! So I would strongly suggest these 2 functionalities on top of just a regular quartz movement. Seiko has its Astron range, albeit the high price tag. Casio G-Shock and Edifice would probably fit the bill nicely.

The whole point of a quartz watch is accuracy and robustness (although I wish more manufactures would focus on style and dress quartz as well) and if I have to crack the watch open to replace the battery, then what’s the point of water resistance? The Seiko Arnie, Citizen Satellite Wave, and dare I say Apple Watch (hate all you want but it’s the most accurate and functional watch, with also a quartz element, on the market) are my go to most of the time because they are just ready to go, always.

One point in favour of quartz watches that is often missed... is that they can also give you things that mechanical can't. When they have functions that would not be achievable (or stupidly expensive) with mechanics. I especially like analog quartz watches with many functions built in that creatively use the hands to display those function. Two examples from watches I own would be my Casio EQS-A500 and my Citizen AS4020-44B. Some analog GSHOCKs would also serve as example. When you change the settings the hands whizz about left and right to show what's needed and when you're done they instantly swing back to displaying the time without having missed one second. I find those things hugely satisfying to play about with. Quartz should be embraced as second technology alongside the mechanical watch, complimenting it and offering other things that mechanical might not reasonably be able to.

When I first started collecting watches for real, I owned 4 watches that actually ran. Only one was a quartz, 2 were automatic, although I had two that didn’t run, and one old Timex manual wind. As it turned out one of the autos that did run was passed down to me by my Dad, and it was a Blancpain fifty fathom military model from the early 60’s. I had no idea of its value until my son who was already into watches posted about it on Horology talk. The response was tremendous! Everyone wanted it! I wore it as a kid to my Boy Scout camporees and just campouts. I also became a sea scouts, and used it for diving. It never missed a lick. I new it had some value, but it turned out that the Rolex band on it was more valuable than what I thought the whole watch was worth! I’m disabled, and have been on a retirement pension since I was 45, and the money it brought when I sold it got me out of debt and started a nice little retirement fund. Now I own 27 watches and only 4 are automatics. The rest are quartz. The big takeaway of this is that quartz watches are much less expensive than autos are, and that’s why I own so many of them. I can’t afford a nice auto but I own several nice watches now that are quartz. I love watches and enjoy the he11 out of them all! I watch your videos, and Jody’s religiously.

for many year i had worn exlusively analog quartz watches, always rejected square digital watches, then i moved to automatin watches (orient), to have a single watch. i might have been a snob back then, but now i'm a big fan of casio watches, and wear them exclusively (f91w silver, a168, aq-s800 and under delivery GDB-800-8). I wear them because they are light, comfortable, has more functions other than time, and they're just fun. it's funny, because the cost of these 4 watches are equal to one orient automatic i have (and which i do not wear anymore). futhermore, i no longer worry about damaging my watches. with the orient i always had that feeling, i was never comfortable wearing that amount of money on my wrist while being a tourist in shady districts or doing sports.

I wear loads of quartz watches ( not at the same time though ). I love them for all the same reasons as stated on the video. Don’t get me wrong, I love mechanical watches as well and they don’t have to be expensive to be in the collection, but they do require attention and by definition, the quartz watch is superior engineering per se.

I wear a Quartz watch a lot, when doing things like working on a tractor or car. I don’t have to worry about damaging them because of vibration or hitting things.

Lately I've been loving solar watches. It's kinda the eat of both worlds in that you don't have to wind it but you also dont have to change the battery.

Nearly ten years of wearing the same Citizen solar radio-sync watch (it’s a no-longer-made CB0013-04A World Perpetual A-T). Worn out five leather bands, got a cheap goldtone stainless steel band that’s not a horrible match. I keep forgetting how to change the time zone when I travel but that’s about the only problem. Normally within a second of the time on the phone network. Do any of those watches with Bluetooth have the ability to get the phone network time off a phone? It would be easier than radio or GPS satellites.

Great video - I’m officially a Quartz wearer too - my mechanicals are in the box - I have a collection of Seiko Quartz HAQ watches - Grand Quartz, Suoerior Majesta and dolce and I must say accuracy consistency and convenience is important and these can be had for bargains - these aren’t throw away - these are jewelled adjustable hand finished movements - and YOU - your fault - you made me buy a Must de Tank Cartier Quartz and i LOVE it

I'm not as partial to quartz watches as I am my Mechanicals of course but the only two quartz watches I have in my collection is an Invicta 1959 offshore Anniversary Edition Russian diver chronograph which was the first real watch I ever bought myself that started my collection & a nice Mecalith chrono from Amazon that was about $35. Current wrist check for the day find me wearing my Orient Ray 2 Sapphire variant 😎

My favorite watch is a Citizen Eco-Drive quartz. Silver markers, no numerals. Pearl face. Small date window. Light weight. On an olive elastic NATO. No ticking sound whatsoever. It’s so perfectly comfortable, minimalist & accurate, I can’t imagine a better daily timepiece.

"The smoother the sweep, the nicer the watch"? So the bulova precisionist must a quartz really worth looking at, huh? I have a catamount diver - the blue dial version- and its beautiful, the sweep is awesome for a quartz. I think it's something like 16 ticks per second?

Brother, I appreciate your honest feedback, even when it's controversial. I have a go-to Citizen Flighthawk that is in regular rotation. I'm mostly an anti-quartz snob myself, but that doesn't mean there isn't a place for an F91W or a Casioak (eventually...) in my collection. I mostly don't wear quartz because it defeats my aesthetic goal, but I appreciate them and realize there's a ton of valid, interesting quartz pieces out there. I honestly cannot see paying hundreds/thousands for a quartz piece, though. Good episode!

If the watch I am wearing is not a Casio Wave Ceptor. The watch I am wearing is set to a Casio Wave Ceptor. (Always G-Shock variety of course.) … I know TTT once said that wave-captor watches are not worth the price over equivalent non wave-ceptors. However I love wave-ceptors, because they are always right. Like not having to set them ever, and my oldest is fourteen years old. (It has never been more than half a second out.) I know smartphones do accurate timekeeping too. However I never yet got around to buying one, so maybe that's why I love atomic time-keeping watches. Even with a smartphone though, I would still prefer a wave-captor watch. That's so I don't have to fiddle setting a digital or ana-digi watch. They are so much hassle to set. (Compared to simple analogue quartz watches are simple to set.) Quartz watches rock though. It depends how lucky your buy is. Like if the second hand hits every marker, it's a buzz to watch the hand. I get why people love automatic watches though, and I have one. However quartz and atomic watches feel like masters of time. The more I love an atomic watch, the more it feels like time is being controlled by it.

Like you, in the current lockdown, I had no idea what the day was so although I usually only wear mechanical watches I have just bought a cheap day/date quartz watch for the current pandemic. I would like to say that I found it very difficult to find a quartz day/date but after a lot of searching I finished up with an Accurist. I do like accuracy which is why I bought quartz and didn’t bother to wear my Sinn 104T. In these troubled times you just don’t seem to spend money so 60 bucks on the Accurist is neither here nor there.
