For centuries, a watch had one purpose – telling accurate time. In the 2000s, however, sports watches have given consumers the chance to get a huge range of extra features on their wrist. Despite all these clever add-ons, we believe traditional analog watches are still the aristocracy of watches today. Why? We've picked out the key reasons for you.
A Traditional Watch Never Needs Charging
Sports watches have long-lasting batteries, but a traditional quartz or automatic watch never needs charging at all – they don't have a battery. Mechanical watches don't stop running during use, and even quartz watch batteries only need replacing about every 3-5 years. A sports watch doesn't need constant charging, but if you want to forget about charging altogether, an analog watch is the superior choice.
Style and Timelessness
A stylish analog watch never goes out of fashion, and when well maintained, it works perfectly year after year while keeping its value. The movements in traditional watches have kept the same working principles for a long time now – "don't fix what isn't broken."
With sports watches, it's worth checking how long they'll receive software updates, so they don't quickly become outdated technology. Old software can lead to compatibility issues with future features and apps.
