: My automatic gives me great joy. It ticks, and has a heart. It needs me to provide it power and to make sure it rests in the correct position each nite so it can be as accurate as it can be for the next days work. I feel that the decision between quartz and auto depends on the personality of the wearer. auto people see their watch as not just a piece of jewlery to be strapped on and worn, then to be thrown into a box when it returns home, but an extension of ourselves; to be looked after and cared for. Quartz people don't want the maintenance, and that's okay. Fortunately, Omega gives us a choice between the 2 types of movements so that each can be happy. This may sound flaky, but all ten of my watches get much attention, and I enjoy them all.
