  2. Quartz clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_clock

    It is also possible for quartz clocks and watches to have their quartz crystal oscillate at a higher frequency than 32 768 (= 2 15) Hz (high frequency quartz movements [4]) and/or generate digital pulses more than once per second, to drive a stepping motor powered second hand at a higher power of 2 than once every second, [5] but the electric ...

  4. Cuckoo clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo_clock

    The clock's movement activates the bellows to send a puff of air into each pipe alternately when the timekeeper strikes. [4] Since the 1970s, [5] quartz battery-powered cuckoo clocks have become available. As with their mechanical counterparts, the cuckoo bird emerges from its enclosure and moves up and down, but often on the quartz timepieces ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Movement (clockwork) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movement_(clockwork)

    In modern mass-produced clocks and watches, the same movement is often inserted into many different styles of case. When buying a quality pocketwatch from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, for example, the customer would select a movement and case individually. Mechanical movements get dirty and the lubricants dry up, so they must ...

  7. Telechron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telechron

    The electric clock market grew rapidly in the 1930s, and Telechron's patented power interruption indicator gave his clocks an advantage over competing synchronous clocks, but by the 1950s battery-operated clocks that weren't dependent on the power grid took market share, and in the 1960s the quartz clock replaced synchronous clocks.
