Autoquartz

Autoquartz

Is a term used to describe a hybrid watch movement that combines both automatic and quartz technologies. In an autoquartz movement, the watch is powered by a rechargeable battery, similar to a traditional quartz watch. However, unlike a standard quartz watch that relies solely on the battery for power, an autoquartz movement also incorporates a self-winding rotor. This rotor harnesses the natural motion of the wearer's wrist to generate electrical energy, which is used to recharge the battery.
