I'm right with you. I have an Omega Speedmaster I bought used 12 years ago (can't remember how old it was then).
It's a mechanical, manually wound watch. Its movement was quite an old and inaccurate design even by mechanical watch standards. That is it does not meet official chronometer standards.
I've worn it almost every day since I first got it. I really enjoy wearing it for all sorts of reasons unrelated to its basic function that I'm not sure I can articulate in any form of convincing argument other than "Well, I like it anyway".
