The Heartbeat of Your Watch
At the core of every Wishdoit watch lies its movement - the intricate mechanism that powers its precision. Movement frequency, measured in vibrations per hour (vph) or hertz (Hz), represents the rhythm of your timepiece, much like a heartbeat sustains life. This often-overlooked specification actually determines your watch's accuracy, smoothness, and overall performance.
Quartz vs. Mechanical: A Frequency Comparison
Wishdoit offers both quartz and mechanical watches, each with distinct movement characteristics:
Quartz Watches:
-
Operate at 32,768 Hz (far higher than mechanical movements)
-
Exceptional accuracy (±15 seconds per month)
-
Battery-powered with minimal maintenance
-
Perfect for those prioritizing precision and convenience
Mechanical Watches:
-
Typically operate at 28,800 vph (4Hz) or 21,600 vph (3Hz)
-
Showcase traditional watchmaking artistry
-
Require regular winding or wear
-
Preferred by enthusiasts who appreciate horological craftsmanship
Why Frequency Matters in Your Watch
-
Accuracy: Higher frequency movements generally offer better timekeeping precision
-
Smoothness: The second hand moves more fluidly in high-frequency mechanical watches
-
Durability: Lower frequency movements often have longer service intervals
-
Performance: Frequency affects how well your watch maintains time in different positions
