Haha, my kid just got his first watch for Christmas. A Casio. He loves it.

On the box, it’s written « 10 years of autonomy » and I was like « oh, I forgot it was a thing ».

I use a solar-powered Casio wave ceptor.

No batteries ever, and the time is always accurate. I haven't touched a button on the watch in years.
