My watch is cheap and it works flawlessly, battery lasts for 10 years:

It's a Glock in watch world, cheap and reliable Wink

But that is a digital watch. I do know that they are pretty reliable but I prefer the style of an analog piece

I love analog watches too, got couple my self but you need to spend a bit more in order for them to be reliable.
I can recommend Tissot brand, good quality and reasonable prices.

yes it definitely has something to do with your watch being cheap the battery is cheap and even the internal parts which cause the movements of the hands to be glitchy and not smooth which eventually will stop

i would suggest you stop buying multiple cheap ones and invest into buying quite an expensive one but would last long

I'm probably on what is my fourth timepiece by now, and in each of them, the issues are very similar.

Either the minute and hour hands don't move by themselves, or all three hands are frozen.

Pretty sure it's a dead battery or something based on what I've read online? I do plan on taking them somewhere to see if they can get repaired.

They're on the cheap side too, so maybe that is part of the problem.
