Those cheap battery watches fitting your personal style, you ever thought of the environmental consequences vs. say a Rolex? A tiny watch battery lasts at least 2-3 years....insignificant compared to all battery use including the mouse you're using... I buy AA's 20-30 at a time for all my applications... All those used batteries you dump somewhere as well as the chemical battery industry required to keep those watches running - vs. the Rolex collecting all the energy required to keep it going for 40-50 years easily... from your arm movements only! Yeah, but my fingers don't get sore from winding.....can't imagine anyone still winding a watch...and paying more than $1000 for the privilege.....why not buy a $100 knockoff.... A Warmist guy like you being most considerate as for the keeping the air healthy and all environment unpolluted really should know better, right? It doesn't even have to be a Rolex of a Patek Phillip, there really are much cheaper versions around fitting your personal lower level life style, while still working off your body energy only, no batteries! And by the way, Rolex glasses don't scratch, no cheap plastic used. The cheap ones don't use plastic either, use same crap as Rolex..
