Quartz watches vs. automatic watches
First of all, an explanation is necessary. Unlike quartz watches where a battery is required to provide the electrical impulse necessary for its operation, watches without a battery or mechanical watches do not need a battery. There are two types of mechanical watches:
- The mechanical watch with manual winding where it is necessary to turn the crown regularly to wind the watch.
- The mechanical watch with automatic winding where the movements of your wrist produce the necessary energy to start the wheels and springs. Would you like to know more about the differences between mechanical and quartz watches? Check out the dedicated article without further delay.
