What sort of watch are you getting for £10 and is it really equivalent to the water-resistant Casio that needs the battery?

I have a water resistant Casio with a 10-year battery in it that cost about £50-60 new. Battery is approaching 8 years old and it’s still running. If it costs only £20 to get a new 10-year battery I’d still pay that. I guarantee you your £10 watch won’t keep accurate time, won’t be very water resistant and its battery won’t last 6 years.
