Men's watches

Eco drive watches

The Eco-Drive technology is a special form of the solar watch from the Japanese watch manufacturer Citizen.

These watches charge themselves over sun energy, heat, motion, and artificial light.

Most Eco-Drive watches can run in the dark for more than six months when fully charged.

Eco-Drive-watches need no battery.

Electric / Quartz watches

Electric watches - especially classic quartz watches - are often powered by batteries.
For the sake of the environment we offer in our shop many electric wristwatches powered by solar cells as an environmentally friendly alternative.

Wristwatches with an electronic movement are generally valued for their reliability and accuracy. The maximum deviation per month is just once to ± 30 seconds. This value is only exceeded by radio-controlled watches.

Electric watches are usually very robust and low-maintenance.

Radio watches

Radio watches are quartz watches and as such are powered by a solar movement or battery.

Radio watches adjust themselves to the correct time independently once a day by using the time signal received from a time signal transmitter for synchronization.

Manual adjustment is not necessary. In addition, the annoying setting of the watch due to the changeover to summer or winter time is no longer necessary.

Some radio controlled watches detect via GPS if they are in a different time zone. An ideal companion for travelers.

Mechanical watches

Mechanical watches do not require batteries or solar power and are considered the most common type of watch.

"Mechanical watches" are distinguished by the type of power supply by watches whose movements are wound by hand by a crown and by watches whose movements are kept in time by arm movement during wear - automatic watches.

Multifunction watches

Multifunction watches often look like classic chronographs at first glance. This makes them optically very attractive and correspondingly popular.

While classic chronographs have the additional dial typical for the stopwatch function, multi-function watches offer a lot of interesting additional functions that no conventional wristwatch has:

In addition to a 24 h display, several time zones and weather data, these time displays can be used to read e.g. GPS-based 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

Swiss watches are high-quality products of the Swiss Watchmakers' Guild, which may bear the "Swiss Made" seal. This seal goes back to a regulation in the 17th century, which was regulated by law in 1971.

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

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

Smartwatches / Digital watches

For decades now, digital watches have been supporting technology enthusiasts in their everyday lives with calendar functions, multifunction alarms and currency calculators. In chronographs, digital character displays and functions are often combined with the appearance and functions of the analogue device.

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

During Jogging, the watch provides its wearer with favourite music - via bluetooth and corresponding headphones.

And if you get lost, the GPS system will help you find your way back.

During the lunch break or during an appointment, email inputs or contact requests can be kept in view - all you have to do is connect the watch to a smartphone or tablet. And if it's urgent, you can send voice messages or short information with your Smartwatch.
The watch is a kind of micro office.

Solar watches

Solar watches use solar energy for the operation of the movement.

The driving energy thus obtained is stored in a battery to ensure that the watch also functions in phases without light. This mechanism is known as dark power reserve.

These watches does not need batteries.

Diver watches

Diving watches help water sportsmen and professional divers to keep a reliable eye on diving time and ascent time incl. decompression breaks.

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 (also 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 sold in Germany are defined in DIN 8306.

Titanium watches

Titanium is 100% anti-allergic and therefore very kind to the skin. In contrast to most alloys, pure titanium does not contain nickel.

Another advantage of this metal over stainless steel: Titanium weighs only about half and is much more robust.

titanium cases are characterized by an extremely robust protective layer that protects the watch case from scratches and damage.

Titanium watches are also corrosion resistant.

Titanium is slightly darker and shines less than stainless steel.

Mechanical movements

A mechanical watchwork consists of several wheelworks, a spring mechanism as drive device, a vibration system for gear control and other components.

Mechanical movements, as the name suggests, are not powered by a battery.

The spring movement is tensioned by a crown to provide the necessary energy for the movement to measure the time.

For this reason, mechanical movements must be wound regularly.

Automatic movements

... contain a mechanical movement which - as long as the watch is worn - does not have to be wound. The spring, which keeps the mechanism of the movement in operation, is tensioned by a rotor, which itself is set in motion by the natural movements of the arm and wrist. The normal wearing of the watch thus ensures that the movement is permanently supplied with the necessary energy.

During longer periods of rest, the watch should be moved mechanically, e.g. with a watch winder, if you do not want to wind it manually. This prevents the watch from being completely discharged and from stopping and prevents the movement from becoming resinous, which can occur as a result of very long rest periods.

Quartz movements

Quartz movements hide under an opaque case back. This feature distinguishes quartz watches from automatic watches.

Quartz watches draw their energy from solar cells or - this is more often the case - from a battery that has to be replaced regularly.

Quartz watches are mostly characterized by a special robustness and are especially in the sports and leisure sector compared to other watches in the advantage.
