Ugh... ain't that the truth.

This is also reminding me of my teenage years. Before I knew watches, the quartz Seamaster caught my eye. Back then you could get one for <$1000 and it was double for the automatic. I legit felt the quartz was too big of a compromise from automatic (even though I knew nothing), so decided against blowing nearly all of my life savings on a watch. I spent $150 on some random other automatic watch instead, which I wore for a few years before moving on.

20+ years later, I'm still thinking about that Seamaster, quartz be damned.
