When you say quartz do you have the normal 15 second a month one of the double eagle perpetual which I have. Comparing the two is the equivelent to comparing an ETA movement with a Patek movement IMHO!
I am so happy with mine, it is performing much better than quoted specs, looks like I am on for +3.5 seconds a year accuracy 
Here are a couple of pictures of mine, we don't have enough Connie pictures!
And an idea of the brushed finish on this watch
