I've written and deleted 3 answers that I would have said to you in a pub, because that assertion/question is such an excruciatingly couch-potato last-to-get-picked-for-the-team world view that it makes me want to snap a pencil 😂
So I've refined my answer to this:
If you ever find yourself doing something where you need to be able to tell the time with a quarter-second glance in physically awkward situations (be that sailing, climbing, pulling a sled or timing a fireplan at night) you need an analogue watch face in a robust waterproof watch: unlike a digital, that you literally have to read, analogue presents a 'picture' that your brain 'gets' at a glance; you don't actually have to read it (and you don't have to get it out of a pocket or worry about water🙄😂) ... which is why toolwatches, for people who need to know 'time' at a glance, will always be analogue and robust.
Probably the only time I would choose a mechanical watch over a quartz would be arctic or high mountain work as I would have a niggling (but probably unfounded,) concern over the effect of sustained 'very cold' on a quartz watch (but I never had to make that choice as I wore a 16710 on all my arctic adventures).
