The Soul of Time in Watches Past and Present
The article contrasts mechanical, Accutron, and quartz watches, noting quartz popularity dropped costs and mass appeal while mechanical and heirloom pieces gain renewed interest. It highlights battery testing and circuitry for quartz and the personal value of heirloom timepieces found at flea markets. Jim discusses slowing life, seeking personal attention in watches, and placing a restored pocket watch beside new bands in a display.
