    because it has a soul.

    and quartz on the inside doesnt 'look' like the genuine watch.. quartz ticks once per second.. most of the reps we buy tick around 8 times per second, giving a smoother sweep just like the gens.. so it will be an instant give away that you are wearing a fake...

    a quartz wont lose minutes per week... its a *lot* more accurate than a mechanical movement... but theres nothing amazing about them.. no soul.. no life... no mystique..

    theres something to be said for mechanical goodness telling time on your wrist..

    its a little of the romantic in us (or at least some of us)

    or a fascination with gears..



    does that not impress you?

    or... you prefer
