Quartz are extremely accurate, compared to autos which will probably gain/lag 5 to 20 seconds per day. However quartz are cheap to make, autos are bought because of the prestige.

A few tips: 1) The word "Automatic" is below the Orient logo so u will know it is auto and not battery-powered. 2) Auto or mechanical watches are harder to make, assembled by hand mostly, so are usually more ex compared to battery (quartz) models. 3) Pros and cons but generally collectors prefer auto watches because they are built to last a lifetime, does not have batts which leaks and spoil the whole watch etc. ... & so on...

i wanted to buy an orient today, but watches with a diameter <42mm without crown doesn't look nice on my hand. bought an edifice instead. looking forward to purchase an orient in the future, specifically the orient arena or the rectangular day date model.
