i love the history of watches and the expertise it used to take to make them, like sewing machines they were one of the great drivers of the machine age for sure!! They remain a wonderment for me as their tiny little mechanisms seem almost magic. I haven't wore or owned a working one for years lol, since i retired. We still have my dads service watch, 7 jewels i think and radioactive glo in the dark hands and all, it is only right twice a day however.
