Mechanical pieces more accurate than quartz?
Say if I have a quartz watch that loses 1 second a month, that would be 12 seconds in a year and 1 minute in 5 years. A mechanical that gains 5 seconds a month but able to be regulated +- 1 seconds with crown up, crown down. Doesn't that make the mechanical watch a more accurate over a longer period of time than the quartz?

So my $5,000+ Rolex is a better deal than the $30.00 Casio because I wont be spending money on batteries?
I believe you because you're the expert.

Whatever... My sun-dial is the most accurate of all of them... Until it gets cloudy, of course!
