Buy Authentic Wholesale Watches for Men

The movement type is a factor to consider when purchasing wholesale men’s watches. There are three primary types of wristwatch movements: quartz, mechanical, and automatic. Each type has its own set of benefits and drawbacks that make it ideal for different types of people and different purposes. 

Mechanical

A mechanical watch uses a mainspring for power. Mechanical watches are often very expensive and are usually decorated in beautiful handcrafted designs. However, if you’re looking for a functional but exceedingly stylish watch, mechanical wristwatches may not be the best option for you. They are less accurate than quartz watches but do not require a battery and can last for many years with proper care.

Automatic

An automatic watch is a mechanical watch where the natural motion of the wearer provides energy to wind the mainspring, making manual winding unnecessary if worn enough. Automatic watches are a great option for those who want to purchase a quality watch without breaking the bank. Quartz timepieces are powered by batteries while automatic watches are equipped with self-winding springs. Some of the best-known automatic watch brands are Seiko, Tudor, Tissot, Rolex and Omega.

Quartz

A quartz watch uses a battery or solar cell to power itself in which the timekeeping is regulated by a quartz crystal that vibrates at a certain frequency. Quartz watches are the most common type of watch available in the market. Quartz watches back in the day were more accurate and more shock-resistant than their mechanical predecessors and are an integral part of the history of watchmaking. They are the most accurate type of watch available and require very little maintenance. However, they can be more expensive than other types of watches and the battery will eventually need to be replaced.
