uhhh I know there is kinda some different definitions for the word “mechanical” so I’ll describe what it does.
It needs to be winded, but there’s a little weight on the back that spins as you move your arms. As the thing spins it winds the watch automatically
IIRC that feature is called “automatic”
For $70 I don’t expect to wear it for years and years, but I haven’t had any issues yet. When it eventually breaks I’m gonna try to fix it myself and probably fail haha
The moon thing just shows approximately how long the sun will be up, it doesn’t have the full cycle :/
but I got it for mostly looks and it definitely fulfills its purpose :)
Then it’s definitely mechanical! The main difference is if there is a spring drive in it that helps it tick away, or there is a quartz mechanism that (as it vibrates on a frequency) ticks the clock forward every second. So unless there is a battery in it that would vibrate the quartz, it is mechanical. This is the best way i can explain it.
But it’s pretty nice it didn’t fall apart in a few months. if you had it for years, i think it’s awesome! :)
thank you :)
