Quartz watch: what are frequently asked questions?
What actually is a quartz watch? And how does it differ from a timepiece with a mechanical movement? In this section, we answer the most important questions about quartz watches.
Does a quartz watch always have a battery?
Yes, a quartz watch is usually battery-powered. This is because a battery is the simplest and most reliable source of energy for quartz watches. It ensures that the watch keeps running and does not have to be wound constantly. It's even easier with sustainable solar power, which captures light and converts it into energy.
How does a quartz movement work?
At the heart of such movements is a tiny quartz crystal. When it is supplied with electricity (usually by a battery), it begins to oscillate – always at the same speed. These oscillations control the beat of the clock. A circuit counts the oscillations and converts them into seconds, minutes and hours. This is how quartz ensures precise timekeeping in quartz watches.
Is a digital clock a quartz clock?
Yes, all of our clocks are quartz-powered. Why? Our digital clocks use the high accuracy of a quartz crystal to accurately measure time. The electronic circuit counts the vibrations of the quartz and controls the digital displays. This is both an efficient and very accurate way to display the time.
