People don't really realize how much the glass effects the lifespan of a watch. Now this only applies to daily wear watches and beaters, but sapphire crystal is an absolute must imo. The lifespan of a quartz watch can be 20+yrs but if the glass gets all scratched up in the first 2yrs, then it's going to look like crap. And on a $130 watch it's just not worth replacing the glass, it's better to just spend the extra money on a watch that has sapphire crystal so you never have to replace it.

Some might prefer the light weight of folded links.
Personally I'd rather get my weight savings from Ti, and visual warpage from boxed glass,so they are both a tall ask for me when it goes on sale quartz seiko with 100m WR, sapphire, solid link bracelet. Doesn't have the same charm as this green timex though, lovely.

If you want a modern sports watch with a sapphire crystal, then by all means get one. But for a retro watch like this, acrylic crystal is the more authentic choice.
