Funny how people don't question the authenticity of my Omegas.
If accuracy is your goal, stay with quartz. If craftsmanship, precision, engineering, complexity, quality, timelessness and longevity are your goal, a quartz can't hold a candle to a mechanical (in my opinion). People don't buy mechanical watches for accuracy, they buy them for the reasons stated above (and probably more than that). I will not wear a quartz watch anymore, and I've had some very cool ones. Truth is, few people need that kind of accuracy on their wrist. When you think about all the engineering and workmanship that goes into quality mechanical watches... Well, it's a thing of beauty.
