  2. Quartz clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_clock

    In nearly all quartz clocks and watches, the frequency is 32 768 Hz, [1] and the crystal is cut in a small tuning fork shape on a particular crystal plane. [2] This frequency is a power of two ( 32 768 = 2 15 ), just high enough to exceed the human hearing range , yet low enough to keep electric energy consumption , cost and size at a modest ...

  3. Automatic quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_quartz

    Automatic quartz is a collective term describing watch movements that combine a self-winding rotor mechanism [1] (as used in automatic mechanical watches) to generate electricity with a piezoelectric quartz crystal as its timing element. Such movements aim to provide the advantages of quartz without the inconvenience and environmental impact of ...

  4. Seiko - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seiko

    Seiko put a second crystal in the watch that is linked with a processor that detects the change in temperature and signals the main oscillator to compensate. The result was a huge improvement in the watch's accuracy from five seconds per month to five seconds per year. Kinetic watches were introduced by Seiko in 1986 at the Basel Fair Trade ...

  5. Spring Drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_Drive

    The Spring Drive uses a conventional mainspring [3] and barrel [4] along with automatic and/or stem winding to store energy, just as in a mechanical watch. [3] However, the escapement and balance wheel in mechanical watches is replaced by Seiko's Tri-synchro Regulator system, a phase-locked loop wherein a rotor, which Seiko refers to as a "glide wheel", is powered by the mainspring barrel via ...
