A quartz watch has superior accuracy and precision and can be manufactured at a fraction of the cost of old watches.
Quartz which changed the world. A quartz watch may have an analog dial and may be made of gold and adorned with as many precious stones as any of watch. (Let's be frank, after quartz, mechanical watches should be referred to as old or even ancient technology.)

So then, it's justified to pose the simple question, why ever buy a mechanical watch? Well, because of the mechanics (i.e., gears, spring, and movement thereof) and the finery of special handiwork such as perlage and guilloche, silly! And if the mechanics also command a premium fee, then why not have the ability to actuality see those special mechanics and handiwork? Therefore, it's almost expected to have an open heart or skeleton watch with a mechanical.

If I'm going to spend the money on a mechanical watch, then I want to see those mechanics. If not, then I'm just getting a quartz, digital or analog.

tl;dr Buy quartz if you're not seeing the mechanics. (Pic unrelated)
