Somehow digital watches just seem to lose any excitement and pleasure of owning a watch, at least for me. I prefer mechanical or automatic movements, and especially like the 3-hand varieties. There is something special about watching that sweeping second hand smoothly move across the watch dial.

Digital is fine for the microwave, for the TV, for electronic gadgets, and for the car, but never for a watch that I will wear on my wrist.

Digital Swiss? Interesting combination of words. Valid I'm sure and deserving of an answer but it makes me think of someone asking about a delicious diet soda.........
Just me thinking out loud again.....:BE

Hey Diet DR. Pepper isn't bad. Thats about the only one though lol

I was just wondering if a Swiss company did. I wanted to get a digi to knock around in or to do yard work. I guess I can always get a nice Casio or Timex. I was thinking about a Pathfinder but then again they aren't cheap for a digital watch.

I own a couple of Casio's that take care of my digital needs. I wouldn't buy that kind of movement in a more expensive timepiece.

+1......I went through a phase where I wore digital watches when I wasn't at work. Then when my collection was stolen almost 6 years ago after Katrina....I wore one I got at the local Dollar Tree, because I was afraid to wear my 2 nicer ones I had. Now I have over 30 watches....way more than I had before Katrina!!!!

It really depends on how you define "Digital".Is it a Jump hour,Led,Lcd.?My personal collection does not include Led or Lcd.And they are Swiss made,regardless of the movements.
