My mother gave me a gold Omega when I graduated from college. It was a
beautiful watch, but heavy as hell and the time needed to be adjusted every
few weeks. It was stolen from a hotel room and I ended up buying a
substantially less expensive watch, that was rated from 300 M waterproof and
that keep perfect time. The only time I had to adjust the time is when the
battery went dead.

I had a Rolex for a while (won it in a sailing race!). It cost me $150/yr
to keep it cleaned enough to keep reasonable time. I sold it to a
"collector" and bought a $50 Timex that kept MUCH bettter time, and it
didn't cost me anything more than $10 every 5 yrs or so for a new battery.
