Well, well, well Andrew. I have a Seamaster Cosmic from the late 60s
(15th birthday present I think) which I find and wear on my retro or
trad days...

I'm wearing a 1962 Omega Seamaster which I love despite its idiosyncracies
- automatic but otherwise utterly traditional. My point is that a ten
dollar digital watch is more accurate than the most expensive mechanical
watch (analogue - ugh!) ever made. But accuracy was not enough. Nowadays,
around me, children wear flashy, throwaway digitals and serious people buy
'name' mechanicals. Very noticeable in a school.
