From the specs of the Citizen A660 quartz movement, it is definitely much better in accuracy. Being thermal compensated is a huge advantage too.
I would like to read more on this A660 calibre - time for me to google i think

Thanks for sharing!

Apparently, Citizen has up the ante with their HAQ. It has a eco drive version of the A660. Initial testing result is very promising......

I think the general population doesnt care if its quartz/mechanical

While I generally prefer handwind mechanicals over auto mechanicals over quartz

Quartz can be beautiful too

I think it boils down to the preference of the end user. As long as they are able to derive maximum satisfaction from the watch, I think whether the watch is quartz or mechanical would become a secondary issue.

Kinetic uses a mechanical rotor to generate electric charge , which is then stored in a capacitor that powers basically a Quartz movement .

I read from somewhere that 80% of watch enthusiasts are collectors of mechanical or automatic movement watches.

But 80% of the watch buyers in the world are buying Quartz.

So, while we are raving about how our passion for automatic / mechnical watches in this humble forum, the fact still remains that more quartz watches are being sold by the thousands, before you can you say "Majulah Singapura".

NB!
Really no answer to it.
I spent few hundreds/thousands/millions on quartz or on auto also nobody cares..

Maybe I will open a thread and ask which hand you guys wear your watch?
