I recently picked up a Seiko 7C43-6010 and am eyeing a vintage Credor as well as a bunch of 7548s. When a quartz movement is built and designed with care/purpose I find it more interesting than a mechanical movement.
As for "qUaRtZ nOt hAvInG a sOuL", I think it's weird that the thing literally made of unfeeling clockwork parts gets personified while the thing regulated by a piezoelectric crystal is the wretched automaton but I'm kind of new to the hobby so maybe it will make sense to me later lol
I don't plan on owning a ton of homage watches but I do have a blue, fully lumed bezel San Martin replica of the Seiko 6105. I wanted to see what the famed build quality was like (it's *really* good for paying under $200 on sale) and if Seiko wanted me to own a SPB153 they would have made it more affordable, tbh
