    Seiko AGS SCUBA Diver 200m 5M23-6A60, 1993. 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 ...

    Some electronic watches are powered by the movement of the wearer. For instance, Seiko's kinetic-powered quartz watches use the motion of the wearer's arm: turning a rotating weight which causes a tiny generator to supply power to charge a rechargeable battery that runs the watch. The concept is similar to that of self-winding spring movements ...

    An automatic watch, also known as a self-winding watch or simply an automatic, is a mechanical watch where the natural motion of the wearer provides energy to wind the mainspring, making manual winding unnecessary if worn enough. [1] It is distinguished from a manual watch in that a manual watch must have its mainspring wound by hand at regular ...

  8. Quartz clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_clock

    Quartz clocks and quartz watches are timepieces that use an electronic oscillator regulated by a quartz crystal to keep time. This crystal oscillator creates a signal with very precise frequency, so that quartz clocks and watches are at least an order of magnitude more accurate than mechanical clocks. Generally, some form of digital logic ...
