Hi,

I'm also partial these days to tuning fork watches myself :) I have a gold-plate Omega f300 which I find myself wearing regularly. I just love the totally smooth second hand and that lovely humming noise ! And surprisingly accurate too, I must say.

To Trolls, I'm not saying Quartz's are cheap, just mine.

Yes, I have quartz watches by Casio, Citizen, Seiko, etc. that I wear on occasion, usually when engaging in activities in which I'd rather not risk my expensive watches.

This one, although this isn't a photo of mine; it's a photo take from the web.

I wear it when travelling to places where fake Rolex watches are everywhere.

Talk about accurate!

Sure.

While the majority of my collection will always be mechanical, I always have a couple laying around. For the convenience of just grab and go, it makes for a nice change of pace.

My wife doesn't care about watches and couldn't bother winding them, so she wears a quartz Omega Aqua Terra, which looks great on her.

Hi,

Beautiful - congratulations ! I love the Oysterquartz Day-Date, I had one myself for many years and it's been I think my favourite of all the Rolexes I've owned. Is that a wood dial ?

I have a drawer full of quartz watches ... I've worn and enjoyed a number of them (I received most as gifts). Wenger, Poljot, and Seiko mostly. My son wears a Shinola Runwell Chronograph and loves it. (That thing can take a beating, too - he's in military school and wears it day and night.)

I like my G-shock but comparable to Rolex, stylish ?
A Grand Seiko quartz is a different story.

I would only consider wearing a 9f from gs. And I think a quartz watch from credor is perfect for ladies.
