They actually did a test back in the day where they strapped it to the back of an outboard boat engine and it still survived. Also shooting it through a glass window while attached to an arrow 🤷🏻‍♀️

I prefer to think of it as being fashionably late 😛

I didn't buy it for the accuracy. I'm a manufacturing engineer, so I jump between working in my office to being out on the shop floor pretty regularly. Nothing heavy-duty, but I wanted something that would still work if I accidentally knocked it. And I wanted something mechanical because I just like mechanical objects.

I'd also like to point out that the Timex movement while inaccurate and crude to some is pretty ingenious in that they were able to break down a complicated watch movement into its most basic components for mass manufacture. From a watchmaker's perspective, it's a junk nightmare. But for me, it's an example of manufacturing engineering at its finest.

You have to wind it every other day anyways. I usually reset the time then.
