The funny thing is, a cheap quartz crystal based clock is more accurate than the best mechanical clock
Fancy clocks being more accurate than cheap clocks is literally just marketing.

I can totally understand buying a nice/expensive watch, they look nice, the feel nice, they’re accurate, they can do cool stuff. I don’t understand buying a watch that costs more than most cars cost, especially if it only does the most basic watch features.
