Analog watches are the best.
2 comments

I picked up a Garmin Instinct Crossover for this reason.

Absolutely loving having a normal set of hands, charging once a month (depending on my workout schedule can be once a week), and still having all of my features.

I agree, though I think I'm happier with quartz analog over automatic/mechanical. They're generally cheaper, keep just as good (if not better) time, and usually can have more complications for a lower price.

Granted, I don't really use the complications either, but I think they look cool on the watch face :)

and they can use solar energy. so no baatery swap every 3 years and the watch does not stop working if removed from your wrist
