The company launched its first quartz movement in 1972.
Only the advent of the quartz movement shut off the bonanza.
This technology only works with quartz movements as a mechanical movement does not work properly in the oil filled case.
And thanks to their accurate quartz movement you need never be behind time.
In a traditional design, with up-to-the-minute quartz movement, it measures 15- x11in.
Outside the radio reception areas, the watch runs with a normal quartz movement.
But its accuracy won't be as good as a quartz movement.
Then there are different levels of quality for quartz movement.
