Surprisingly the most prestigious and expensive watches, such as Rolex, are generally not the most accurate. Rolex certified chronometers (which are finely-crafted mechanical watches costing $1,000 or more) are guaranteed by Rolex to be accurate to within two minutes (120 seconds) per month. Seiko guarantees its quartz watches to be accurate to within 15 seconds per month, which is eight times more accurate than Rolex's prestigious -- and expensive -- chronometers. Seiko's guaranteed accuracy is conservative because my Seiko quartz watches are accurate to within 4 to 5 seconds per month. Rolex does make highly-accurate quartz watches which they call their Cellini series, but this series is less popular than their less-accurate mechanical chronometers. If you are looking for a good-looking man's watch that is highly dependable and more accurate than a Rolex -- and also far less expensive -- this Seiko should fit the bill.
