We don't buy mechanical watches because of their high accuracy - we buy them because they are mechanical engineering marvels.

Buying a quartz/battery watch is like buying a tesla over a bmw - there is appeal to having a lightning quick 0-60 (or dead accurate watch) but the mechanics behind a petrol engine (or an automatic watch) is what draws us to the brand.
Wow I never knew that about how to try and get the watch to +/- some seconds by laying it a certain way. Lately I have been laying the TAG vertically crown up. It literally says thats a way to gain seconds. I'll try laying it crown down. Though I never really liked the idea of that, i'll use a soft glove or something.
