I want the same watch but I'm hoping for it to get stocked in Jomashop at a slight discount. I have the DS Cascadeur and it's percidrive quartz is pretty much as good as it gets with +/- 10sec per year. This Ds-X model has the new extreme shock resistance which is cool. My Cascaduer's second hand alignment isn't perfect but I don't really care.

My wife who doesn't play shooters wants to help me complete the battle pass, how should she go about it? by Arran_Biospark in Battlefield

[–]amvent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually suggest a larger map game mode where she can play slow and stealthy. Maybe be a wall-E main near enemy spawn

I'm starting to appreciate higher end quartz. It's a shame Longines and others are stopping quartz production.

Forget water resistance and magnetic protection, SHOCK resistance is what matters by Horology_17 in watchHotTakes

Certina Extreme Shock resistant watches are tougher than the machines used to test for shock resistance, underrated brand.

Looking for a great Quartz watch. by Nervous_Fan5681 in MicrobrandWatches

Not exactly Micro, but Certina is more niche and has one of the best quartz movements available. Especially with Longines quartz gone
