The Mechanical Watch
Image by Greg Rudzinski
There are many places where watch batteries are not readily available which makes the mechanical watch an important backup to the very accurate quartz watch. I recommend the Seiko 7s26 automatic mechanical movement which is affordable, simple , sturdy, and reliable. The best part about the 7s26 movements is that they can be easily regulated to better than ± 5 seconds per day.
