Quartz vs Automatic Watches
Quartz Watches are electronic watches where oscillations of a quartz crystal is used to regulate timekeeping. They are becoming more and more popular in recent years. Reason is simple: They are incredibly accurate, even compared to expensive automatic mechanical watches. Quartz watches lose only around 2 seconds in a month. This deviation time is much higher even at ultra-expensive automatic watches. Another great feature of quartz watches, they don’t need servicing except for battery replace for 2-3 years. In automatic watches you have to move your wrist to charge the watch. Other superior feature of Quartz watches over automatic watches is their prices. You can find great quartz clocks at £200-£500 range but no Automatic watches near that range. Premium automatic watches start from £1.000. This MK Watch is one of them.
