The Swiss watchmaking industry recognized this looming problem and worked to shift the public perception of a mechanical watch to a luxury item. This effort worked well, and made sense, considering the centuries of horological research and development that make up the mechanical watch.
Before the invention of battery-powered quartz watches, mechanical watches were very common and available both in luxury and economy models. When the battery-powered quartz watch debuted, it made the mechanical watch seem almost obsolete overnight. At the time, many people asked why anyone would want a mechanical watch that was fragile and comparatively expensive when cheap and durable battery-powered quartz watches were readily available.
In addition, protect your watch from knocks, drops and shocks. The internal mechanism of a mechanical watch is delicate, with many micro-sized parts. The good news is that if a mechanical watch is damaged, it can be repaired. The counterpoint to this is the example of low-cost battery powered quartz watches. Often, the cost to repair these watches is more than the value of the watch itself. here

The TID Watches No.1 36 Black Edition is a perfect example of just that. Done up in a limited edition black on black (everything is better in black), this watch is powered by a Miyota quartz movement, boasts an ion-coated stainless steel case, and is waterproof to 50 meters. more

No fuss, no weakness, loads of style — this watch has it all. more
There are plenty of watchmakers out there who would have you believe that the busier the watch face, the greater the timepiece’s overall value. We’re here with the Void Watches V03W-365 to tell you the opposite is often the truth. Magnificently rendered in a minimalist style, this limited edition watch features a sparse dial design that’s both easy to read and pleasant to admire. And it still manages to include a calendar window, both 12-hour and 60-minute markings, and a Miyota quartz movement. Plus, only 365 of these watches will ever be made, so you better act quickly.
Designed in Sweden and housing a reliable Japanese movement, the TRIWA Nevil chronograph watch is a stunning international timepiece dripping with high-class styling. From its beautiful silver dial (including twin sub-dials) to its Swedish-made organic leather band, there are few wristwatches that look this good for the price. Of course, it’s not without other features either — it’s also water-resistant to 50 meters and has a scratch-resistant mineral crystal.
Though a wide variety of watches are suitable for the likes of the tactical and outdoor crowds, not everyone wants something that looks like it did two tours in Vietnam. Some gentlemen prefer styling with a bit more elegance. Of course, that can be hard to find on a budget — unless you’ve got your eye on the Tissot Tradition Watch. About as beautiful as they come, this dignified wristwatch features a quartz movement, an uncluttered silver dial, and an alligator-embossed leather band.
So, whether you flex a rugged, tech-heavy chronograph or a classic, slimline dress watch designed to compliment your suits, your choice of watch says a lot about you.
