I have another answer; in fact I'm surprised nobody thought it so far. One of the big advantages of quartz is that it does not need winding. Given the much reminded congratulatory messages of "wear in good health"; or "wear in much good health", or some such variation (the key point of this presentation being health), it is far easier to ensure that this happens with a quartz watch. An automatic, not to mention a manual, needs physical human attention, wrist shaking, twisting, enough to prompt visits from a chiropractor. This means in bad health "must not wear nice watch" . A quartz appeals to the couch potato element in all of us, it can be worn at all times without concern. Wear a quartz in good and bad health - two for the price of one.
