Hi all,
As I’m more and more disappointed by the reliability/accuracy of my automatic watches (perhaps my way of life) I just decided to get a quartz.
Of course I started with TimeFactors as Eddy’s baby are always in the vintage style and size that I love.
Disappointing, only the Precista PRS-10 is available. I was more on a diver or something like the Everest.
What do you, guys, think?
There's possibly a prs-3 at some point I think that might quartz
You know what I'd really love right now ?
Something like this. They're not that common and definitely not cheap. :(
Seiko H558 "Arnie"

No, sold out and discontinued. If not, I will have buy it.Quote:

Depending on your budget, there are lots of quartz divers about from the likes of Citizen. I also have a Longines HydroConquest quartz which is very well made and a great grab and go which gets worn in rotation with my automatics.
Have a look here;

No love for the Precista Aerotimer PRS-45?
Eddie's most recent quartz design.
Wonderful watch, I think.

Smith's Seafire?
Thanks for the answers.
I’m looking for a watch not bigger than 40mm and with a WR rating from 100m at least.
These come to mind as a quartz diver

Scurfas also seem to be a popular choice

I imagine they do it black as well;Quote:

Yes, I missed it. But day/date is a no go for me.Quote:

I’ve been excited about this. Seems like the perfect companion to the PRS-10. Possible 2020 release?Quote:

I alternate between natos, MN, and a bracelet with a chevron on the way and find it fine on each.
