[Healeys] Torque Wrench

[Richard Ewald]

Here is some light reading for you.
Based on these articles I would say that yes they are accurate (more so
than any other type) and yes they do last.
http://www.hotrod.com/how-to/additional-how-to/ctrp-1111-torque-wrench-myths/
http://www.hotrod.com/how-to/additional-how-to/ccrp-1304-torque-wrench-testing/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_wrench

Note that the accuracy instead of being 2-3% for a mechanical wrench it is
0.5% for the electronic type wrenches.
