What types of movement are available?

If you are thinking about buying a new watch or would like to find out more about your current model, it is worth taking a look at the different types of movement. Each movement has its own unique advantages - and appeals to different wearers.

Mechanical movements (hand-wound)
For purists and lovers of traditional watchmaking: These movements do not require any electronics. They have to be wound regularly by hand - this requires attention, but also brings the special feeling of genuine craftsmanship to the wrist.

Automatic movements
These watches are made for everyday wear - they wind themselves automatically with the natural movement of the wrist. Ideal for all those who wear their watch every day and appreciate a successful combination of technology and independence.

Quartz movements
Reliable, precise and easy to care for: quartz watches are battery-operated and particularly low-maintenance. Anyone who values accuracy and comfort is well advised to choose this type of watch - and usually at a very good price-performance ratio.

Modern alternatives: Radio, solar and spring drive
Those with an affinity for technology will enjoy radio-controlled clocks or solar-powered models. They synchronise automatically or generate energy from light. Particularly innovative: Seiko Spring Drive - a hybrid movement that combines mechanical precision with electronic control.
