Neither I'm guessing do some of the people who are paying hundreds and sometimes thousands for these conversions. We are too used now to fairly invulnerable watches, especially quartz and people take it for granted. I could toss my G-Shock out of the office window and assuming it hadn't been stolen by the time I got down the stairs, it would be just fine. Strap one of these conversions to your wrist and hammer on a door a bit too hard and you might find that it needs a fairly expensive repair.
