3.1 Quartz watch
Quartz movement. The electrical energy provided by the
battery causes the quartz in the interior of the watch
movement to oscillate 32,768 times per second. This
high frequency gives great accuracy. The seconds hand
advances in steps.
Important
: Do not leave the crown
C
in position (p1) for longer than 20 minutes, as this
might interfere with the time function.
