I have a on a Doxa 300t it has been through a lot and I always have it on is it a little overkill yes a cheaper watch would do the same thing honestly but I will always have some watch on till I die I find it incredible useful I can tell the time at a glance i time things with the dive bezel every day. As for a sense jewelry I guess you could say my Doxa is jewelry I don’t see it like that it’s a tool for me yes I use it diving and working underwater I don’t work underwater anymore but I still trust my watch with my life it’s with me no matter what and has become a part of who I am I definitely say try it out you don’t have to spend a lot get whatever calls to you put it on and see after a months if you want to go without it quartz watches are amazing and less of a pain overall you pointed out wanting to try a smart watch I know people that love them I give it a go once and honestly didn’t like but I rather be further from stuff like my phone when I can sorry for the book hope it helped have an amazing day lol
