A lot of willy wagging going on here! Mechanical watches require the wrist to be moved back and forth vigorously and often in order to keep them wound. This is why they are popular with men...

A lot of willy wagging going on here! I have alway had a theory that the bigger the rear wing, the smaller the w????. You suggesting it may apply to watches also!

I thought that was to do with the exhaust tailpipe size (particularly when applied to the likes of 1.2 the Corsa  ), but I can see wings being included, too

Rolex Oyster Perpetual, it's 25 years old now and my wife bought it me for my 40th, back then it was £1300 brand new, a lot of money to us but as I have worn it every day since I don't think expensive. It's already been left to my first Grandchild ;-).

I have several Christopher Ward watches which I wear for daily use and think they're pretty good value for money. I do like the look of the Morgan CW models that have recently been released. I really like the look of the Meistersinger that was posted a little further back. They've been on my radar for a while now and I do have a bit of a hankering for a single handed watch.
To answer the original question, I think a mechanical watch would appear to be more fitting given the heritage of Morgan, but mechanical watches are my preference any way. Ultimately, there's no one size fits all and it's all down to personal preference and taste, so no right or wrong answers.

Well I guess all the Aero owners should be wearing Apple watches or some such 'leccy thingy.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

A posh watch seemed important when I was still working, but no longer.
