What do you like?

I have three watches made between 1950 and 1970 and they all
have Swiss movement. I like looking at the watch and seeing the
second hand not jerk to the next second. They aren't aren't as
accurate as quartz, well, the Railroad watch is comparable, but I can
deal with it since it only takes a couple of seconds to synchronize
them to my iPhone.

Another positive attribute is the ticking. It's subtle whereas the
quartz goes, "thunk, thunk, thunk..." I refuse to have one in the
bedroom because I'd never go to sleep with that racket. The
grandplums thought it was cool to listen to. "Hey Prunefather, can
we listen to your watch?"
