Have you seen the Mondaine Helvetica? https://www.mondaine.com/watches/mondaine-helvetica/helvetic...

Traditional look, smart features, and 2-year battery life.

Smart features? Plural? Not really. It's a basic watch with one extra red hand that can track your steps for the day; that's it. Very nice watch, however; I love Mondaine's design. But let's not pretend this is at all comparable to Apple Watch.

that watch is gorgeous... I'm drooling. But I can't get over the $950 price tag for a quartz watch.

Quartz watches can be just as beautifully executed as mechanical watches. Grand Sieko watches being the case in point: http://www.grand-seiko.com/movement/quartz.php
