"like wearing a wind-up wristwatch to avoid possible battery failure from an electronic watch"
My father wore wind-up watches for years, his pocket watch would have to be wound every day. My Rolex my grandfather left me is kinda the modern version of the wind up watch, no battery to worry about. That's not silly, non-battery watches are great. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
