I don't sacrifice anything to buy watches, but except for a 1980s Rolex, my watches are of the $100-350 USD variety.

commented on Is it time to “right-size” the range of button cells? ·

The hassle with batteries is most of why I have only mechanical watches. Yeah, it would be great it they standardized on two or three, basically, the biggest they can fit in a given watch. Luckily, most car companies have standarized on 2032 cells for their smart keys. I doubt if bikes, cordless drills, weed eaters etc. will ever standardize, but it we be great if they did. These, and bikes/scooters use standard cells, but it would be a pain to replace the cells in the brand-specific module.

commented on Swatch Sistem 51 ·

I bought one of those a few years ago for the "fun" style, but sadly, Sistem51 watches are junk. The white one and two others only lasted a few months. These were early ones, so I don't know if they have improved, but I'm not going to buy any more. For less money, I can get Seiko 5, Invicta Pro Diver, and other watches that will last for years or decades, not a few weeks or months.
