Frequently Asked Questions

How long should an entry level watch last?

A well-made entry level watch can last several years to decades depending on build quality and care. Quartz movements typically run 2-5 years on a battery, while basic mechanical watches can last much longer with proper maintenance.

What's the difference between quartz and mechanical movements?

Quartz movements use a battery and electronic components for precise timekeeping (usually within seconds per month), while mechanical movements use springs and gears powered by winding, offering traditional craftsmanship but less accuracy (typically within minutes per day).

How formal can an entry level watch look?

Many entry level watches can work in business casual to semi-formal settings. Look for clean dials, leather straps or polished metal cases, and avoid overly sporty features for more formal appearances.

Do I need to service an entry level watch?

Quartz watches mainly need battery replacements every few years. Mechanical watches benefit from professional servicing every 3-5 years, though some entry level models may not be cost-effective to service versus replacing.
