Then it’s definitely mechanical! The main difference is if there is a spring drive in it that helps it tick away, or there is a quartz mechanism that (as it vibrates on a frequency) ticks the clock forward every second. So unless there is a battery in it that would vibrate the quartz, it is mechanical. This is the best way i can explain it.

But it’s pretty nice it didn’t fall apart in a few months. if you had it for years, i think it’s awesome! :)

It is indeed pretty! :) Is it mechanical?

For 70 bucks, though, i would be hesitant. I just can’t imagine finding a mechanic to fix it if need be, or what kind of shortcuts they had to make to create it.

Is that a moonphase display on the top there though?

The one i have and love the most originally would have cost as much as my first car 15 years ago :D

Watches, sadly. There some beautiful pieces, and somehow the industry figured out how to ask for a house’s worth of money for some of them
