The world of "High Accuracy Quartz" watches is a highly specialized one, but within that world, there are a number of technically intriguing timepieces, including such forgotten exotica as the Pulsar PSR-10 and PSR-20, which were accurate to, respectively, 10 and 20 seconds per year There's a tendency among mechanical watch enthusiasts to regard quartz watches as essentially all the same but this view, while it may be understandable, ignores the fact that there are, both functionally and aesthetically, sometimes very marked differences between the movement in a thirty or forty dollar entry level quartz watch, and one found in higher end offerings from brands as diverse as Breitling, Bulova, and Seiko, all of whom have in their current lineups, quartz watches that represent extremely dramatic improvements in quality and accuracy over more conventional offerings. .
