They don't use batteries or electricity!
Oops, I forgot to provide the context in my reply... it was to:
There's no doubt that digital watches are better as a timekeeping device, let alone cost effectiveness, but I wear an automatic watch, because of my fascination for the craft (specifically, and of crafts in general).
Another similar example of my general mentality: compass + map over electronic GPS. GPS is fantastic when you have power, and I use it when I'm out in the wilds, but I'll never forgo the first, even if it is kept just as a backup. (And I do have a waterproof semi-rugged unit which runs on replaceable AA's, though it's due for an upgrade at this point)
Granted, a ruggedized digital watch is probably better for taking a beating, so it's not a completely similar situation. But being able to function without electricity is always a plus in my eyes.
Now back to my long-term plan of getting my house to the point where it can function off-grid...

The box is just as good as the watch tbh why is the box so nice
It justifies much of the price increase because the actual internals haven't changed barely any :V
Swiss heart attacks
e: yeah I'm pretty sure it's the entire price differential between this and the last reference #.

He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
Nah if you buy the watch new everything is included.
