OSCILLATING WEIGHT
1
The everyday movement of your wrist
rotates the oscillating weight.
2
GEAR TRAIN
This amplifies the rotational movement
of the oscillating weight 100 fold and
transfers it to the rotor.
ROTOR
3
This is where the magic begins. Every movement
of the oscillating weight is turned into a magnetic
charge. It can spin up to 100,000 RPM-faster
than a Formula One race car.
GENERATING COIL BLOCK
4
Extremely high density coil transforms the
magnetic charge into the electricity
to power the watch.
5
KINETIC ENERGY STORAGE UNIT
The electrical energy is stored in this tiny
technological marvel.
6
CIRCUIT BLOCK
Vital to the process, this electronic circuit
controls voltage, amps and by quartz
oscillation, produces a precise watch signal.
7
QUARTZ CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
When electricity is passed to it, it oscilllates at a
highly stable rate of 32,768 times a second.
8
STEP MOTOR
Finally, the electrical signal is converted into a
precise rotational motion which is transmitted
through the hands through the gear train.
