Automatic
An automatic watch, also known as a self-winding watch, is a timepiece that operates without the need for a battery or manual winding. The unique feature of automatic watches lies in their movement mechanism. As the wearer moves their wrist throughout the day, the internal rotor spins freely, transferring energy to the mainspring of the watch. This winding action stores potential energy, which is then released gradually to power the watch's movement. Automatic watches are admired for their mechanical complexity and craftsmanship. They often showcase transparent case backs, allowing enthusiasts to observe the intricate movements of gears and springs. While wearing the watch regularly keeps it powered, automatic watches typically have a power reserve that allows them to continue running for a certain period even when not worn. This blend of traditional watchmaking and modern engineering has made automatic watches a popular choice among those who appreciate the artistry and precision of mechanical timekeeping.
