What is the difference between a mechanical watch and a quartz watch?

The mechanical watch relies on the spring winding to provide power and is timed by gear transmission. Mechanical watches are divided into manual winding and automatic winding. Due to the complexity of the structure, the phenotype is thicker. Because of the characteristics of the travel time principle, it is subject to the influence of gravity, mechanical friction, temperature change, use, etc., so the error is larger than the quartz watch. The quartz watch is powered by a battery, and the extremely stable high-frequency vibration of the quartz crystal is used as a reference for time. Therefore, the quartz watch has a relatively accurate travel time and a relatively low cost, and is inexpensive. Of course, although the appearance of quartz watches has a great impact on traditional mechanical watches, it still cannot completely replace mechanical watches. Many men or collectors still like the traditional sense of mechanical watches.
