What is an Analog Watch?
As per the dictionary definition, an analog watch is a timepiece where the hours, minutes, and sometimes seconds are indicated by hands on a dial. This classic design represents the quintessential image of timekeeping - a refined round watch adorned with carefully positioned numbers and indexes, allowing for intuitive time reading. Analog watches carry the characteristic ticking sound synonymous with precision timekeeping.
An analog watch represents the perfect fusion of form and function, where precisely engineered hands traverse a meticulously crafted dial, creating a harmonious display of time through traditional watchmaking artistry.
Understanding Analog Watch Movements: Types
The heart of every analog watch lies in its movement, which has evolved significantly while maintaining its core principles. When exploring analog watches, you'll encounter two main types of movements:
Quartz movements offer exceptional accuracy through battery-powered precision, while mechanical movements celebrate traditional watchmaking through either automatic or manual-winding mechanisms. Available in automatic (self-winding) and manual-winding versions, they offer a traditional and intricate watchmaking experience.
Your choice of movement reflects not just practical considerations but also your connection to the art of timekeeping itself.
Every analog watch in our collection at Just In Time embodies classical elegance. Setting your timepiece is straightforward:
Step 1: Gently extend the crown (unscrew if necessary) to engage the time-setting mechanism.
Step 2: Rotate the crown clockwise to advance the hands.
Step 3: Return the crown to its original position to commence timekeeping.
At Just In Time, we curate watches that blend precision engineering with timeless design, ensuring each timepiece meets our exacting standards of excellence.
