If it is going to be quartz, I say be digital. Have atomic clock time setting, solar charging, and never require service.
I have always wanted a Nomos and that model is amazing. The red sub second is as complex as any Nomos should be and red always looks stunning on a black dial. I love that watch....ahh , a timeless look in what I call a forever watch. BTW, for the wedding day my friend. I am married 29 years and that day stays with me more than the honeymoon as we have had many great times after, but the wedding day is unique.
Well the modern tool watch is most often digital. Climbing Mt Everest or working in an oil field or fighting a war - mostly G-Shocks, though not exclusively. Hikers and the like often prefer a fit bit, or sports watch with GPS. ~20% of people in my office wear a smart watch. All of these are tool watches. I love mechanical watches, but just telling time is simply not enough as most people have a smart phone or computer screen always within reach. I know many many people who do not even wear a watch these days, the time is everywhere except maybe in a casino. So if you mean was designed as a tool watch, that is something different. A new Rolex Sub was designed as a tool watch, but today, for most, it is like a 4WD truck with dirt tires that never goes off road. It just makes a statement. Do I still like them, very much so. Subs and trucks 8-)
