Traditional watches are divided into two categories, one is mechanical watches, the other is quartz watches (and now there are electronic watches). Therefore, when people need to choose a watch, they often compare mechanical watches with quartz watches, and they always don’t understand that mechanical watches are inaccurate compared with quartz watches, but the price is so much higher. We have been making mechanical watches for more than ten years, and we are an experienced manufacturer of mechanical watches. Next, we will share the content of mechanical watches and quartz watches.
A mechanical watch without complex functions has a total of more than 130 parts, so the process is about 1300, which is twice as much as that of a quartz watch. At the same time, for the sake of aesthetics, many watch brand watch factories will re-polish the movement parts. It does not depend on other consumption, but from the power consumption, it can be seen that the mechanical watch is more expensive than the quartz watch.
Secondly, how to choose between quartz watches and mechanical watches with the same function also troubles many friends. For example, many chronographs with timing functions use quartz movements. Moreover, the price of this kind of quartz watch multi-function chronograph watch is not very high, and the travel time is also very accurate. In general, the price of mechanical chronographs is relatively high, and the price of Swiss watches is basically more than 10,000 yuan. Its uniqueness lies in its complex movement design and more advanced craftsmanship. But as far as the timing function is concerned, the quartz multi-function chronograph watch will be more suitable for young consumers who have a fast pace of watch replacement.
At this point, many friends will still be entangled in answering "whether it is better to choose a quartz watch or a mechanical watch?" In fact, this mainly depends on personal needs and preferences. Whether it is a mechanical watch or a quartz watch, it is suitable for all men, women, and children. Quartz watches are fashionable in appearance, light and thin, and have extremely small travel time errors. The price is affordable for most people. The disadvantage is that the battery needs to be replaced.
The mechanical watch does not need to change the battery, it runs on the power of the mainspring, it is very environmentally friendly, has high craftsmanship and technical content, a high-end appearance, and the movement is more attractive. However, the body of the watch is relatively thick, and the error of travel time will be larger than that of the quartz watch. At the same time, mechanical watches need external power sources and sufficient activity to fully wind up the mainspring. Therefore, it is recommended that children, the elderly, and people with little exercise should not choose mechanical automatic watches.
One more thing to mention is that whether it is an antimagnetic watch or not, it will be affected by the magnetic field. In fact, antimagnetic watches are not 100% antimagnetic, but the main parts, such as balance wheels, hairsprings, springs, etc., are made of antimagnetic materials. Therefore, the magnetic field must have an impact on the watch. When the mechanical watch is accurate on weekdays, but suddenly it is not accurate, the movement is very likely to be magnetized. For this mechanical watch magnetization problem, you only need to send it to a professional watch repair department for demagnetization.
For quartz watches, the influence of the magnetic field is even more obvious. When encountering a strong external magnetic field, the quartz watch will stop or deviate in speed, resulting in misalignment, because the micro pusher that pushes the pointer in the quartz watch is driven by magnetic force. The easiest way is to stay away from the magnetic field and readjust the time.
The above are the reasons why mechanical watches are more expensive than quartz watches. Which watch to choose must be determined according to the actual situation. We are a mechanical watch factory, if you need wholesale mechanical watches, please contact us.
