[Question] What makes a watch “good”? (alien.top)

Hello everyone,

Newbie here and trying to learn more about watches. wanted to get your opinions on what makes a watch good? Is it the movement? The brand? Or just purely aesthetics?

Right now I only judge purely on aesthetic only and I guess by the “Brand”. No clue on the engineering/movement/engine of watches. Any recommendations on where I can start learning?

Thanks in advance

A good watch is one that is easily affordable and one that appeals to you to the point you cannot ignore it. Quartz, automatic and manual movements each appeal for different reasons to different people, per se none is necessarily any better than any other. Have fun learning about watches.
