If you have questions about Quartz, it might help to know a little bit about how that question came around.
To understand that, it helps to know a little about the Horological community. Keeping time is probably one of the least important things that a watch can do. The more complex the movement, the better. And durable/servicable is high on the list of important things.
When quartz came out, it was unproven. You cant put in a new gear to fix it....and to some in the Horological community, the soul of the watch was missing because the complex gear movement is gone.
Today though...the tech is proven. Quartz is highly accurate. More accurate than Mechanical. Quartz has proven to be durable. It can run for decades. You still need to replace
the entire movement, unlike mechanical, but this has become less of a thing.
Of course, the complex movement is still gone...and this is why some still shy away from it.
But...for the most part, those who are considering this watch are not terribly concerned about complex movement.
The only real knock that I would have on this watch is that the glass is not sapphire. It will scratch more easily.
But it is $40....so one needs to be realistic.
Classic diver and holds it's own against Seiko. Before someone says Quartz, remember quartz movements can costs thousands rivalling the best automatics. https://youtu.be/IQt3ik4yn1M
Are you are grandpa?
Was this your inheritance?
Did your smartwatch quit on you?
How much did you get it for at the pawn shop?
This will complement your 90 year old girlfriend?
This is as reliable as your pacemaker?
Back in the 90s this was cool?
What's next, elbow pad jackets?
There are a lot of dated watches out there that your lame joke could apply to. This is not one of them. Dive Watches are timeless (no pun intended) and this is a particularly sharp watch at a great price.
Take the TIME to work on your comedic material.

This will look amazing next to my typewriter?
What garage sale did you score that at?
Do people still think that some items are timeless, is this it?
Duh, this is totally Radical Dude!
As the proprietor of a large, planet-destroying landfill, I'd like to encourage you to keep purchasing the cheap consumer electronics that my business thrives upon. F that quatrz watch, that thing will be useful decades from now, but you have to get a new piece of consumer electronics every few years. Thank you so much!
By the way, it's time for you to recharge your watch again.
I didn't buy one due to the reportedly poor battery life.
BTW, the two colors make sense when one color is for the first 15-20 min. of the bezel. This half and half color scheme is used in GMT watches to better visualize AM and PM times, so it looks gimmicky on this diver.
Pretty good watch for a good price but I already have 60+ watches. I suggest checking out the Watchuseek forum and "Best of Ali-Xpress?" to see the variety out there for cheap quartz and automatic watches.
