I made that mistake with the Casio quartz watch I just got rid of. I bought it for about $30 thinking it would be my "beater" watch, but it kept such bad time that I kept thinking to myself "my Bond SMP auto keeps better time than this QUARTZ watch." I knew that Tissot had some nice quartz models I had been looking at for a while, so I settled on the Seastar. From now on I won't chance buying anything without a Swiss movement in it. I've had such bad luck with Casio and Seiko that I don't trust anything that doesn't have "SWISS MADE" on the dial.
