Very accurate and iconic as well
Speaking of accurate non-HAQ, Precisionist are aces

I've bought two Tag quartz that were extremely accurate on an annual basis. They are not rated as a HAQ but they played the part pretty well.
Currently I have a Citizen Eco Drive that doesn't seem to lose or gain at all either. I gave both of my Tags to my Brother as gifts. I like quartz watches provided they are well made with good QC as in the seconds hand landing directly on the markers. I wear autos a lot though

Most accurate is the Seiko chrono with the 7T32 movement, over 25yrs old and still running at minus 19sec./yr. It has never been stopped or serviced except for battery changes. I don’t know how Seiko selected their crystals then but for a non thermal compensated quartz it is remarkable.
Most useful is the Longines Conquest VHP with it’s independently adjustable hour hand, my travel watch.

I just bought a Tissot pr100 with an ETA in it and I'm hoping this is going to be my last everyday Carefree watch when the ETA takes a crap I'll just drop another one in it. I got back into quartz as I fixed a Movado for my mom putting a new 3 Jewel movement in as far as accuracy goes I only need so much accuracy I'm more interested in Crystal case and band as well as the dial layout

I'm curious, are all these threads you create market research for the watch company you're starting? Why don't you tell us about it?

Anyway, as for me, I really love digital G-Shocks. I think it's their absurdly avant-garde nature that appeals to me. It's almost some sort of karmic balancing act with my minimalist GSes, Nomoses and Tudors. I think I like my quartzes to be digital because, aside from a few ridiculously high-end pieces, they don't compete with my mechanicals. I feel like both have a very clear place in the collection this way.

Omega AT 2517.80 looks just like the auto version sans some lettering, but for a lot less. Has some quirky things about the Quartz movement, but the lower cost makes me grin every time I️ see the second hand slightly miss the mark.
Will probably get that fixed when I️ have it serviced..

I'm pretty chuffed with my Citizen Prime - especially after popping a domed sapphire in it.

And my Bulova UHF chronograph is pretty sweet. It's a legit watch - 300m, sapphire, screw-down crown and pushers, and good lume. And you can find these for under $200. Mine was closer to $150. You just need to have the wrists to pull it off - it's a beast at almost 50mm. (Also, it's currently en route to Jay at MCW to have the PVD stripped and get a hi-light bead blasting.)

And I think my Luminox gets an honorable mention. Swiss movement, full tritium, 200m, and sapphire for around $150. And it gets a mention here because I've beat that ever living piss out of it and the only sign of use is some paint wearing off the edges of the crown. The carbon reinforced poly whatever the case is made out of is some legit sh*t.
