Very smart choice. It sucks that the watch community totally ignored (or shunned) these.

If we keep im mind that this was discontinued in 2017 and existed in one way or another since the early 90s and was bought second hand. I would say that's the quintesensial field watch, small, quartz powered to keep time and with 100m water resistance for someone with small wrists or classic taste in watches.
The mechanical version is a bit overrated (and overprice in the second hand market) while nobody paid attention to the quartz which is more adequate to fulfill the duty of a field watch and also increase water resistance from 30m or 50m to 100m which means pool and wet environment friendly.
