What is meant by automatic, chronograph, and quartz?
Automatic,or self-winding,means the watch has a self-winding mechanism which allows it to run on its own without batteries.The advantage is,batteries are not required.The disadvantage is,they should be serviced every few years to make sure they run smoothly. Chronograph watches are the little dials (or’clocks’) which appear within the watches themselves and are always fully functional on our watches.They are normally used as stopwatch timers. Quartz means the watch runs on a battery.One disadvantage is,they normally have fewer markings and details than self-winding watches,and you have to change the battery so often.

Chronographs are the little dials (or ‘clocks’) which appear within the watches themselves and are always fully functional on our watches. They are normally used as stopwatch timers or as day, date and military time indicators. Quartz means the watch runs on a battery. The main disadvantage is that you have to change the battery every few years.
