Ecodrive watches

The Japanese watch manufacturer Citizen developed with the ecodrive technology a special form of the solar watch.

These watches gain energy via sunlight, heat, movement and artificial light (e.g. in the office).

With a full battery charge, most ecodrive watches are able to run for six months in a dark environment.

Ecodrive watches do not require a battery.

Electric / Quartz watches

Electric wristwatches are often environmentally friendly because they are operated via solar cells. However, there are also many watches on the market - especially classic quartz watches - that are still powered by a battery.

Reliability and accuracy are generally highly appreciated for wristwatches with an electric movement. The maximum deviation per month is just ± 30 seconds. This value is only exceeded by radio-controlled watches.

Another strength of electric watches is that they are usually robust and low-maintenance watch types.

Radio watches

The energy supply of radio-controlled watches is provided by a solar movement or a battery, since quartz watchworks are used in this type of watch.

With the help of a time signal received from a time signal transmitter, radio-controlled watches adjust themselves once daily to the correct time.

The annoying setting of the watch associated with the change to summer or winter time is omitted with a radio-controlled watch.

Since some radio controlled watches via GPS recognize when they are in a different time zone, this watch is an ideal companion for travelers.

Mechanical watches

Mechanical watches are considered the most common type of watch and function without battery or solar power.

The energy supply of mechanical watches differs according to watches whose movement is wound by a crown by manual winding and according to watches whose movement is kept in time by arm movements during wear. The latter are known as automatic watches.

Multifunction watches

Multifunction watches are not only popular because of their application possibilities. At first glance, they often look like classic chronographs and enjoy great popularity - optically very attractive.

Multifunction watches, however, instead of the additional dial that chronographs have for the stopwatch function, offer very many interesting additional functions that no conventional wristwatch has:

In addition to a 24h display, these time displays can display several time zones or GPS-supported measurements. Especially the combination of GPS data and time measurement enables runners, athletes or hikers and travellers to call up details about routes they have covered, location displays, digital compass, altimeter or heart rates. Individual multifunction clocks even offer a tide display.

Swiss watches

High-quality products of the Swiss Watchmakers Guild, which may bear the seal "Swiss Made", are referred to as Swiss watches. The seal, as a sign of quality, goes back to an ordinance from the 17th century, which was regulated by law in 1971.

The Swiss Made seal stands for Quality, reliability and longevity.

Manufacture, assembly and inspection of "Swiss Made" products always take place in Switzerland and are characterised by particularly high quality.

Smartwatches / Digital Watches

For decades, technology enthusiasts have appreciated the supporting functions of digital watches. These include in particular calendar functions, multifunction alarms and currency calculators. The digital displays in chronographs are often combined with the appearance and functions of an analogue device.

The development of Smartwatches goes well beyond this. This type of watch pursues the objective of making watch wearers a maximum of useful functions available.

For example, during jogging the watch provides its user with favourite music - by Bluetooth and corresponding headphones.

And should a person get lost, the GPS system helps to find the way back.

Connected to a Smartphone or Tablet, you can keep track of Emails or Contact requests during an appointment or lunch break. And if it's urgent, you can send voice messages or short information about the Smartwatch.
The watch is a kind of micro office for the wrist.

Solar watches

Only solar energy is required for the operation of a solar watch.

A battery stores the naturally generated drive energy to ensure that the watch also functions in phases without light. This mechanism is known as dark power reserve.

These watches do not need batteries.

Divers watches

Dive time and ascent time incl. decompression breaks keep water sports enthusiasts and professional divers reliably in view with a diver's watch.

Diver watches are characterized by a tested water resistance (of at least 20 atm) and must show a readability of time and dive time from a distance of 25 cm (even in darkness). In addition, this type of watch must offer the possibility of preselecting a time span by means of a timer or bezel.

The criteria that a diver's watch must meet in order to be allowed to be sold in Germany are defined in DIN 8306.

Titanium watches

Titanium watches are very popular with allergy sufferers because titanium is 100% anti-allergic and very skin-friendly. Unlike most alloys, pure titanium does not contain nickel.

Titanium weighs only about half the weight of stainless steel and is significantly more robust.

An extremely robust protective layer surrounds the titanium case and protects the watch case from scratches and damage.

In addition, titanium watches are corrosion resistant.

Another difference compared to stainless steel: titanium is slightly darker and less shiny.
