    Barring actual manufacturing defects, the cheapest quartz crystal timing circuit on the market will be far more accurate than the very best Swiss watch movement, by orders of magnitude. A mechanical watch depends on a spring whose behavior is highly environmentally dependent - it will gain or lose multiple seconds per day, being affected by the orientation, vibration and temperature changes it experiences. A quartz watch will drift a few seconds per month.
