Glossary

It is a type of watch movement that uses quartz to move the watch hands and operate its functions. The quartz movement consists of a combination of electronic and mechanical components that work together to achieve high accuracy in timekeeping.

In quartz movement, a quartz crystal is used as a timing device. When the crystal is subjected to an electric current, a constant electrical pulse is generated at a specific frequency. These electrical pulses are converted into a precise signal used to move the watch hands and display the time.

Quartz movement is known for its high accuracy, as it is regulated by the steady frequency of the quartz crystal. It is also stable and reliable, allowing for time reading with accuracy up to a few seconds. This makes it a popular choice for precise and reliable watches.
