Quartz truly reigns supreme in the realm of timepieces, with 95% of all watches produced today having quartz movements. Quartz watches use an electronic oscillator that is regulated by a quartz crystal to tell the time. They are renowned for their precision and accuracy when compared to mechanical watches, and are less sensitive to shock than their mechanical counterparts. 

For those who require precision timekeeping from their watch or want a low-maintenance device, quartz watches are the ideal choice.
