Bendy bar ones are great. 
They don't go out of calibration and are, as you've found, reasonably accurate. I'd much rather have a reliably accurate torque wrench than a digital one displaying precision without perhaps the associated long term accuracy.

My son bought a digital torque wrench "head" when he built his BMW engine. It was a good idea in theory, but never really seemed to work properly. I think that he reverted to a traditional torque wrench.
