>you'll be very lucky if your Casio can last as long

The Casio would last even longer - and would be closer to the right time even without touching it in between.






Good luck finding a compatible battery for it after 200 years.

Adapting to whatever battery exists 200 years from now to the form of a CR2032 battery would be simple. A Casio just takes a round battery shell that contacts with the positive and negative terminals on each side.

Hell, I can make one from scratch in my workshop trivially, from basic materials.

Finding high-end mechanical watch technicians? Not so easy. And hardly so cheap.


I'll just ask the ruling AI to summon one into existence from the required atoms?
