Knowing the differences between quartz watches and mechanical watches, you can choose the right one more easily.
1. Accuracy
The time error of mechanical watch is larger. Quartz watches will be more accurate.
2. Power
The quartz watch only needs to change the battery regularly, relatively simple.
While mechanical watch needs to be wound up. But there are also automatic wind up ones, which can be automatically wound by shaking the watch.
3. Use time
In general, the service life of the quartz watch is limited by the battery, which is shorter than mechanical watch. Quartz oscillator will be a recession after using 5-8 years, so the relative accuracy will reduce. For the battery, generally it should be changed every 1 to 2 years.
The mechanical watch does not need to change the battery, and regular oil maintenance can be used for more than 20 years.
4. Weight
Quartz is lighter and mechanical watch is heavier.
5. Maintenance
Mechanical watches do not go wrong easily, and maintenance is more convenient.
6. Price
Quartz watches are much cheaper than mechanical ones.
