Automatic vs. Quartz: Which Type of Watch is Right for You?

A quick guide to the pros and cons of automatic vs. quartz watch movements.

The two most common types of watches are automatic (mechanical) and quartz (battery-powered). Both have their strengths and appeal to different kinds of watch lovers.

Automatic Watches

     
  • Powered by the motion of your wrist.
    •  
  • Require regular wear or use of a watch winder.
    •  
  • Appreciated for craftsmanship and tradition.

Quartz Watches

     
  • Battery-powered and extremely accurate.
    •  
  • Require minimal maintenance.
    •  
  • Often lighter and thinner in design.

Which Should You Choose?

Choose an automatic if you love the art of watchmaking and want a piece with heritage. Quartz is ideal for someone who wants a reliable, low-maintenance timepiece.

‍

Conclusion:


Whether automatic or quartz, both types offer value. At Avum Collection, we help guide you to the perfect watch based on your lifestyle and preferences.
