… if you dive into a swimming pool, you’ll go straight to the bottom, wrist first. But, your waterproof watch will still keep on tickin’.

Well atleast in the end you’d know how long you were able to hold your breath for.

A few years ago I discovered a Casio wrist watch which stays accurate by updating itself with the National Bureau of Standards (WWV) and powers itself with a solar face- no battery changing. Absolutely accurate and no maintenance.
Sorry Woot, I’m spoiled and will settle for nothing less…

…Oceanus: awesome watch!

Does anyone know if this one has a sweeping second hand ??

[imeclectic]

I wonder how heavy they are? I can see a lot of people commenting on how big they are but no one has mentioned how light/heavy they are.

Anybody know?

No quartz watches have a sweeping second hand, only automatic watches do. And the “sweep” is still a tick it’s just a much faster tick than the once per second of quartz watches. If you get 10 “ticks” per second you have what looks like a sweep and also an expensive watch.

Well, the idea is that since Swiss watchmakers have been making watches for a long time, they tend to do a better job. This just seems to be the general opinion from people who have worn Swiss, Japanese, American (what?) and Chinese watches (or watches with those movements). There are a few exceptions; Miyota, for example, makes some pretty awesome Japanese movements. However, for the most part, the Swiss are the most respected.

I guess that is why I also like apples and they do not have the word “Swiss” in the title

If I wasn’t into ten-buck disposable quartz digital watches from Wally World, this would be a great deal: compare to $299.98 at ShopNBC.com, or $199.95 at watchdiscounters.com. Be careful of the stock numbers if you jump on it, the order is reversed from the picture. The silver face on the left is the SL-90013-22, the blue face on the right is SL-90013-33.

“Swiss” could very well mean some watch part manufacturer from “India” who happens to have a division in “Switzerland” selling parts to those “Swiss” who happen to assemble them. Its like calling cars assembled in Ohio, “Japanese”.

Quartz = ticking second hand
automatic/manual = sweeping second hand

(at least in every quartz / automatic\manual watch I’ve seen)

The word for at the end of your sentence is called a dangling participle and is not necessary. I’m just saying.

[LowerLower]

save you calms and get an Omega. First watch in space and heck James Bond wore one.

[chemgeek]

Oh well, just bought a TAG.

…and what is so great about a sweeping second hand? Is that the sign of a nice watch? My TAG ticks, is that bad?
