Automatic wonders
An automatic movement transforms a mechanical watch into a self-winding timepiece with a rotor. Most of today's watches have ball-bearing rotors that automatically wind the watch. This is done by the movement of the wearer's arm, so the watch enthusiast does nothing but wear the watch to keep it running. Unlike the well-known quartz watches with mechanical movements, there is no need to change batteries, as there are none in automatic watches.
The first automatic models were produced as pocket watches by Abraham-Louis Perrelet as early as 1775 and continued to be developed until the 20th century. Since then, they have also become popular in Germany, where watchmakers such as Junghans launched the first models. Nowadays, even a chronograph can be used as an automatic watch, resulting in even more accurate timekeeping and high-quality models.
How good are self-winding watches for men?
For many watch experts, automatic watches are the first choice for quality watches. Features such as accuracy, power reserve and legibility play an important role. The right model can serve as a dependable daily accessory for watch enthusiasts who require a classic, sporty, or modern timepiece.
Our divers' watches collection lets professional and amateur divers easily tell time underwater. Just like our everyday automatic wristwatches, they feature robust materials to keep the watch watertight. These include
- The case,
- the strap
- and the crystal.
What men should look for when buying an automatic watch
If you are an amateur or professional sportsman and often find yourself in strenuous situations, you will gradually notice signs of wear and tear on your watch. This can even happen overnight, which is why it is important to protect its inner values from the outside with the following resistant materials, among others:
- Metals and alloys: Titanium is up to 12 times stronger than aluminium, extremely heat-resistant and anti-magnetic, which is why it is used for bracelets. The 316L stainless steel alloy is also particularly suitable for allergy sufferers and is kind to the skin. With a density of 7.9 kg dm/3, it is a very robust material, which is why the case is often also made of stainless steel.
- Leather and rubber: Leather straps are neutral to the skin and do not cause excessive heat or cold, while rubber is extremely tear-resistant and 100% water-resistant.
- Plastic, mineral and sapphire crystal: Sapphire crystal is the standard for the highest quality watch crystals. One of the hardest materials in the world, it protects the watch from scratches and the dial with its delicate hands.
Do the automatic watches from Zeitlounge need to be wound?
With regular wear, the automatic watch will wind itself and always show you the correct time. However, after purchase, the wearer should wind the watch once using the crown and then use it for at least two weeks. The running-in period ensures a stable rate, which maintains the power reserve. For collectors or people who change their jewellery more frequently, the watch will need to be wound over time. The following points can be used to restart the watch:
- Daily arm movements over a period of 8 to 10 hours.
- A watch winder
- Manual crown winding
