Hey man, sorry you are getting your thread crapped all over, there are some NICE quartz watches out there (just look at that Victorinox!). That stuff about souls is nonsense, whether it is mechanical or quartz, it is still an inanimate object. If YOU like it, that is all that matters.
Here is one that I got recently, homage Oris (I don't generally like quartz reps of mechanical watches, but only because they are not accurate to the gen in a very noticeable way). With homages, it doesn't matter. The Zitc Oris homage uses the same case and bracelet as the A7750 Oris Chrono Diver rep, but with Zitc branded dial, mineral crystal and quartz chrono movement. Difference in price? About $200 - this one cost $85 plus shipping.
