Ignorant question. How does the watch know what the tide levels are in your part of the world? Tide times change every day

They're more hype beast type watches
Not so much losing interest, but more that I've bought a bunch if watches and I know what I want in a watch now. At some point I'm going to try to trim my collection down to 6 watches.
I saw a cheap-ish watch recently that made me think that I want to buy it and let that be the last watch I buy for the next few years.
I'll post about it when it comes in.
This is minimally helpful, but that looks a LOT like an apple watch
Quartz is fine, but I'm skeptical about Chinese mechanical movement's durability (lots of online complaints about soft metals in the movement) and my ability to find a watchmaker that can source a new movement for a swap.
They have really been stepping up their game on the design tho
Total lug to lug + male end link measurement and a height adjustment for tall watches decides if it will fit on your wrist.
But people just want general guidelines and they like to give the circumference measurement of their wrist, so giving the diameter measurement to start looking at is the best you can do without getting into it.
Are you in the US?

Look at their other ebay listing for Alpina.
You want to stay at or under 36mm for your wrist
Get the Longines Spirit Titanium 40mm instead.
It's got a high price point for watches that look too much like other more well known watches.
If they want to distinguish themselves they need to come out with a good design that's unique to themselves and market it heavily.
Like how breitling has the navitimer.
The flagship has a special case back design that's pretty cool. Not a fan of the gold tho, makes it look dated in a tacky kinda way.
The citizen is beautiful, but needs to be seen in person. I've heard complaints about the plastic looking dial, because there is a layer of plastic over the dial.
