I am new to watch collection but my experience with Seiko automatic was very bad and Quartz has battery issue. In all this i concluded solar specifically Casio Tough solar were very realiable and good for bucks. Analogue watches never give much features like digital and use. What are your views? I found Solar is best option as far features and thing for money goes. Automatics are very expensive and don’t worth in utility that much.
Solar is the most practical type of watches we have today fi we only count watches and not smartwatch es.
This is why I always recommend people to buy a citizen eco-drive or a Casio solar for an everyday watch eve though I’m pretty sure that people on this sub are tired of seeing the same reply from me on the new posts looking for recommendations.
I’d say automatic watches are for watch enthusiasts. Whoever wants a practical everyday watch should get a quartz or a solar watch.
I support you this hundred percent by personal experience. Obviously for style and all enthusiasts Automatic has its charm but it comes to utility it is of no use. I once ask a person wearing a Timex military version and he said it doesn’t have date. Just imagine a military watch that is more than 100 dollars not having date. And there is a long line of watches that are very expensive and couldn’t tell you date or day. So for practical use solar win win. Rest obviously where style comes everything is possible
