I wanted to post something regarding (don’t say it too loudly...) Quartz. I started my journey in Watch appreciation with quartz watches and once I discovered the wonders of automatic watches, completely dismissed quartz as somehow inferior. I’m not the first and not the last person to do this btw. My watch snobbery continued unabated, overlooking anything with a once a second tick until I read about the Seiko 9F quartz movement used in the Grand Seiko line. I was blown away by the level of craftsmanship and technology crammed into this movement and had to have one. This opened the floodgates for quartz appreciation to me and I started to explore the vintage Seiko movements that led to this mechanical (quartz regulated) masterpiece. From the thermo compensated twin quartz movements of the 70s, through the 7a series (the first analogue display quartz chronographs) to this 7548 Diver. I can now come out of the horological closet and say loud “I love quartz and I’m proud!” Don’t get me wrong, I will always prefer a mechanical hand wind or automatic movement. But I have a healthy respect for the innovation and technological advances that have led to what is now a cheap, “inferior” entry level method of timekeeping. I no longer look down on quartz watches , in fact I think everyone should have one (or more) in their collection alongside. Thanks for reading this rambling post and have a great weekend! 😊 (btw as you can see, I’ve now got the 7548 on the period correct strap, I’m SO happy with this great little watch). #vintageseiko #seikoholic #quartzwatch #seikoquartzdiver #seikolover #seikoaddict #vintagewatch #horology #horologynut #vintagewatch #watchaddict #watchcollector #watchfam #watchgeek #wristgame #wis #wisdad #timeonthewristblog #thegreynato #time4apint #Hodinkee #twobrokewatchsnobs #wornandwound #watchuseek #efhc #eppingforesthorologyclub If you would like to see more, please visit my blog at - https://timeonthewrist.wordpress.com https://www.instagram.com/p/ByKQP-yHSrR/?igshid=y9ww11s4f5dc
