I have google and read some opinions on quartz and automatic and it seems quartz not the so right choice.

nothing `wrong' or `right' when it comes to quartz.

its just that most watch people are people who appreciate movement..Therefore, to them, a movement that draws power from a simple battery is consider soul-less.  also, they dont fancy the second hand moving by jumping to next marker...

on other hand, automation is all about design, elegance, etc.......  Its part and parcel of watch collection...To a true watch lover...movement is really important...so its common people like this will not fancy quartz...

but quartz have advantages....no need to wind or adjust time....just pick up and wear..and they're usually cheaper.....

having said that, i dont think its worth buying an expensive quartz....anything above RM2k for quartz is consider expensive....most watch lovers will ask you to grab a automatic japanese or instead...or some lower priced swiss names...

Good point.
