·I don’t mistrust quartz watches at all. They’re objectively better suited to the task.
It is, for me, having something in my daily life which is not in any way electronic. I’ve been working in IT my entire adult life, and was getting paid for IT work in the 80’s while still in HS. I needed something that wasn’t electronic, and fell in love with mechanical watches.
I think you said it all..."they're objectively better suited to the task". But somehow knowing that there's a tiny little mechanical device on your wrist thats powered by nothing more than a spring (a SPRING!!) is incredible.
