5 reasons you need an automatic watch

In the world of timepieces there is a very obvious dividing line between quartz watches and automatic. Cross the line to automatic and you’ve entered a world of finely made modern masterpieces. From the craftsmanship to the style, here are 5 reasons you need an automatic watch.

1. You’re investing in the heritage and legacy of watchmaking 

When you buy an automatic watch, you’re not just buying a watch, you’re investing in the heritage and legacy of watchmaking. Because of their advanced technical attributes, automatic watches are sought after by collectors and desired by watch-lovers.

2. It will hold value over time 

When building a watch collection, you must choose pieces that you not only like to look at, but that will hold their value over time. And that is why automatic watches are such wise investments. As soon as you purchase an automatic watch, especially a limited edition one, the value almost always increases. They only get more valuable with age and will be passed down between generations.

3. An automatic lasts forever

Because of the technical functionality, an automatic watch lasts forever. They’re powered by the movement of the wearer and require no battery so the self-running watches will keep ticking for as long as the owner keeps wearing it.
