Quartz watch is the English word for quartz watch, which relies on the battery to drive the quartz motor to keep time.
How to differentiate:
1, quartz watch will be indicated on the quartz word. 2, quartz watch second hand, walking time is a frame a jump, every second will jump a bit. 3, quartz watch second hand, every second will ring a bit, make a “click” sound. 4, quartz watch second hand, every second will ring a bit, make a “click” sound. 5, quartz watch is a mechanical watch, rely on the winding box to store energy and automatic watches.
Mechanical watch in English mechanical watch, relying on the clockwork box to store energy and drive the time.
How to distinguish:
1, the mechanical watch will indicate the word automatic. 2, mechanical watch second hand, is continuous uninterrupted walk, will not pause. 3, mechanical watch second hand, because the mechanical watch movement pendulum frequency reaches 8 times per second, the sound is relatively small and fast, issued by the “click click click” of the sound of the hurry.
Appearance:
Quartz watch
1、The appearance is thin and light.
2、 the design is stylish and modern.
3、the dial enclosure diameter can be small.
Mechanical watch
1、The appearance is heavy.
2、 the design more present art and craft charm.
3、 the dial enclosure will not be too small.
Inaccuracy：
Quartz watch is a quartz vibrator to replace the balance wheel of the mechanical watch, using its correct high-speed swing to timekeeping watch, generally no error.
Mechanical watch is subject to gravity and mechanical watch parts friction and external environment and other factors have a greater impact, so the timing error is greater.
Lifespan:
Quartz watch: ordinary quartz watch basic life is 5-10 years, top quartz maintenance good life can reach 30 years.
Mechanical watches: the basic life of ordinary mechanical watches is 10-20 years, and the life of top mechanical watches with good maintenance can reach 50 years.
Value retention situation:
The manufacturing cost of quartz watch is low, and the structure is relatively simple, so the value preservation ability is poor, and the market value will decrease with the increase of using time.
Mechanical watch movement is relatively fine, the production is also relatively complex, the cost is also relatively high, in today’s market, the mechanical watch value retention ability is stronger, especially some rare goods limited edition, and even can become the object of collection or investment.
