We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
I started wearing a watch again as a way to have one less reason to look at my phone. Now I never use the phone to check the time.
Even if I was a billionaire I wouldn't want to wear something that expensive. I'm too reckless. I bang my watch on door jams and other things all the time.
That chronometer versus a watch piece is one badly written article.
For example: "You would be able to start the chronograph when the race begins, and then stop one of the chronograph hands at the first lap, and the second at the next." No indication is given about what to do if the race is longer than two laps.
"The movements are put to extreme temperatures from around 46 degrees Fahrenheit to 100 degrees and set at different positions." Who considers 46 degrees F to be an extreme temperature? What are the different positions? No clue.
