i absolutely love grand seiko spring drive but with the few problems being that since the hand is moving constantly this generates a LOT of wear to the part resulting in having to send for service more frequent, grand seiko service do not usually have good rep too. another thing is the capacitors will die out at some point (20 yrs) bit low life for a luxury watch
@@Baronnax while there would be less colliding, however there is only one component that is colliding which is the the balance jewel as opposed to all gears running constantly in GS, resulting in shorter service interval. on GS website it recommend 3-4 years instead of 5-10 years. these service can cost somewhere between 700- more than 1k. while GS is such a marvel of engineering, the cost to keep them running just doesn't do it for me.
@@barrengtonIt's an expensive watch like a Rolex but better in my opinion. Like most any other luxury good such as real fur coats, exotic leather goods, or supercars, high end watches will have expensive regular maintenance. If you can afford a watch of this caliber, you shouldn't balk at a couple hundred dollars worth of maintenance per year to keep it in tip-top shape.
Electrostatic movement by Accutron that uses mini turbines that generate electrostatic charge to power a vibrating crystal. Sweeps 4x a sec, giving it a smooth sweep.
When describing the spring drive movement U mentioned the mainspring. However the image U showed was of the hair spring which is a component within the balance of a standard mechanical movement. Ironically this is the one component that separates the spring drive movement from a standard mechanical movement. In a spring drive the balance is what is replaced by the electrical components as this regulate the watch more accurately. Fun fact: it is impossible to use a timegrapher to determine how well a spring drive movement is running as timegraphers use the sound of the balance oscillating to generate it's data. Due to the fact spring drive movements have no balance a timegrapher cannot be used.
My GS spring drive was my grail for the movement alone… got it last year and I’m still in love with it. The sweep is just magnificent and that dial too 👌
THANKS for presenting the only good looking B Precisionist. I have 24 watches, but 1 fave is this, in dark blue, and despite size looks and feels very comfy on my thin wrist. Polishing and superfine brushing make it look luxurious. And SWEEEEEP! 😎
This is interesting. I’m still a newbie into watches so my knowledge is not that great. I have a Timex the Waterbury chronograph watch with the tricolor subdials. Is that a Meca-Quartz movement? Because I noticed the small seconds for the timekeeping only beats once per second, but the chronograph secondhand is more of a sweeping action.
If only Bulova would put that movement in a watch that was worth a damn (sapphire crystal, 100m water resistance, screw-down crown, good finishing, understated/elegant design). They could be selling watches hand over fist, and I, for the life of me, can't figure out why they don't want tremendous amounts of money.
Maybe the best of both worlds. I am sort of looking for a quartz watch but with a movement similar to those you find in the old quartz omega and Rolex.. issue is there are quartz movements and QUARTZ movements.. but good quartz omega and Rolex are too dear. Great video
We have a 8$ wall clock at home with super smooth sweeping seconds, any idea what type of movement it has? And also if it is that cheap to make, why not wrist watches come with similar movement?
That wall clock is an ordinary quartz. The reason it sweeps is because there is ample space for a big battery + it is relatively easy to replace depleted batteries, as sweeping is way more energy consuming than ticking for quartz watches. When it comes to wristwatches, the challenge is to make maximum use of the energy packed into the small battery.
What is your opinion on the new Vero Somkey 44’ edition automatic? It has a seiko movement, sapphire crystal, and a 10 year warranty. Is it worth $450?
True. Love the precisionist trims of Bulova. Glad they upped the quality of a lot of them, using sapphire crystal, ceramic, and real diamonds. They upped the price too, but I think it deserves it.
There were Electronic watches in the 60s (Hamilton, Timex, Stellaris) , Bulova's tunning fork accutron in the 50s-70s that humms insted of ticking, and now mecaquartz are used in second hands without cronometers. There are Casios, invictas and pagani design wstches with swipping second hands.
Bulova. Google search will pull them up. There’s a few people that specialize in reconditioned old models. Tony rice (famous guitar player) used to rebuild them in his spare time
It literally is a pure sweep, it does not tick at all thanks to how the movement works. The second hand never stops, but is instead slowed down electromagnetically by the small electric charge generated by the escapement.
My Apple Watch on the California dial has a perfectly smooth sweeping second hand. I also love all my mechanical watches, but I often watch my Apple Watch second hand and think… this is smoother than a Spring Drive 😂
Watches don't generate energy they store energy. Spring drive watches happen to be one of the only that do generate power in some sense because the glide wheel powers the integrated circuit.
@@ChronometerCheck If the Precisionist movement beats, it is beating at a level no noticeable to most people or to the human eye unless you are using a micro or macro lens to zoom in on the dial. I doubt anyone could tell at an average glance that the Precisionist movement may not be as smooth as the Grand SEIKO.
First off, the Bulova does not move smoothly because the quartz crystal oscillates at a higher speed, that just improves the accuracy of the watch. All quartz powered watches can have smooth movement if they are designed to, it just takes more battery power to do so. Second, functionally speaking, a dead beat second hand is better than a smooth second hand as you can precisely see when the seconds pass. Mechanical watches have smooth movement because it is hard to make them beat once per second. It is a defect of the design, not something to be lauded. That being said, I do love my mechanical watches despite the smooth but vague movement of the second hand.
@ChronometerCheck.... Wrong. Quartz watches only have two mechanisms holding the crystal. The precisionist has three, and they patented it. That's the reason for the sweeping second-hand movement.
I was just wondering about this. Cheap AA powered wall hanging clocks can have a sweeping second hand, but even high dollar quartz watches all seem to tick 1/sec. I'd hoped purely battery-powered, smooth sweeping watches were more common. You can buy some really nice mechanical watches for the price of even the cheapest Bulova Precisionist model, so I don't see myself ever buying one. I also know of some watches that, like the mecha-quartz, have both quartz and mechanical movements, but the mechanical is just to have a sweeping second hand purely for show. It's not attached to the minut or hour hand at all. Fossil makes one. At least the chronograph watches serve a purpose, but how often do you actually use that feature on a watch that has one?
I too had this question for years. That is it not possible to create smooth sweeping second hands in a battery powered watch? Are most Fossil skeleton watches not actually fully mechanical?
@@danlightened idk about most, since they have a lot of models lol. But I know they have plenty of models that are fully mechanical. I got one as a gift and like it well enough.
There was the same question above. Sweeping is way more energy consuming than ticking for quartz watches. These AA powered quartz wall clocks sweep because there is ample space for a big battery + it is relatively easy to replace depleted batteries. When it comes to wristwatches, the challenge is to make maximum use of the energy packed into the small battery. Also, very expensive high end quartz watches brag about their insane precision, like The Citizen AQ6110-10l being within 1sec/year and Grand Seiko SBGP007 5 sec/year. And when it comes to setting the time and checking for its accuracy later on, ticking is more suitable then sweeping.
What's up bro I just ordered a new watch it's a MERKUR/Pierre paulin jumphour automatic it's Japanese with a seagull movement probably not the greatest watch ever made but it looks awesome it's gonna take forever to get here 😢
I cant wait till spring-drive alternatives become standard issue in budget level watches. Until then, gimme precisionist movements for microbrands any day
It's a tie between Bulova and GS for the sweeping second hand movement. I don't think the GS is any better. They're both the best in the world. Not even swiss mechanical watches can match their movement. And Bulova Precisionists arguably have the most accurate time of all quartz and mechanical watches.
Unfortunately these days it's hard to get a real HMT watch outside of India (unlike Seagull, the Chinese watch company). HMT website won't ship outside India and EBay is full of fake HMT watches... but those watches were great back in the day, I agree with you.
Also someone please talk about the quality of Titan mechanical skeleton watches in comparison to the good ones. Like how are they able to offer them for $150-300?
Spring drive is not a quartz watch. There are two type of hybrid technologies. Kinetic which is quart with elements of mechanic movement, Spring drive which is mechanical with elements of quart. With Spring drive there is no battery, so it doesn't qualify as quartz.
It literally has a quartz crystal in it that's powered by electricity made by the spring unwinding. It's not a "non-quartz" watch just because it has an alternator powering the quartz instead of a battery, lol. You have no idea what you're talking about. It's a mechanical movement with an electric quartz regulator instead of a mechanical swiss lever escapement.

Spring drive is garbage. GS watered down their brand by offering SD. It has an IC and wires inside, it is essentially a quartz technology mechanical mechanism inside. Over engineered for absolute no reason. It is a highway robbery. GS should just focus on manual wound and automatic movement.
No it's not. They are a fully vertically integrated watchmaker. They have movements no one else can even figure out how to make like the Spring Drive, the Kodo Force Tourbillion, and the 9F quartz, and their dials are absolutely brilliant in person. All that for the price of the cheapest and most boring looking Rolex available

Honorable mention is the Seiko VH 31: Not even close to as smooth, but a quartz movement with 4 ticks a second vs the normal 1 tick
I expected to see it in the video..?
i always use vh31 in my custom watches as it is cheaper and still makes the watch looks good
Isn't the VH 31 consider to be a mecha quarts movement?
@@Clover2030 yes
Great video, but the spring drive movement actually has a glide wheel instead of a balance wheel and balance spring
Yeah he said main spring and showed a balance wheel (which of course spring drive doesn't have)

There are also the electromechanical watchs from the 60s and 70s. They use a battery instead of a spring to power its mechanical movement.
I actually own one of these-it’s a 1968 Timex Electric. The second hand only ticks once per second.
The frederique constant monolithic manufacture is just like if not better than the spring drive. And the FC is fully mechanical
Yeah, no. Not nearly as accurate and very loud

Absolutely, at this point may as well get a fading that's worth a damn and Frankenstein their movement into it
I agree. I have seen a few Bulova watches I like, but most are hideous. It is really strange how they can make so many truly ugly watches.

@@pratikkalani6289I finally understand their logo but i just dont like it its a tuning fork but its just not an attractive symbol for a brand
@pratikkalani6289 I used to agree but the Jetstar dials are pretty nice. Especially that gold/yellow and the red dial
Nah seiko did this way before, like 5s21 movement in 1988
You missed some, like seiko actually did some sweep quart movement, like 5s21 that sweep insanely smooth, or vh31, 4 beats a second.
it's not invented by bulova
What is the name of the first watch you show when you mentions me a quartz?
What's the reference of the bulova in your vid?

I saw a Pagani design skeleton watch for $200. Is it actually any good?
If you include vintage, there's also the tuning fork movements, used by brands like Omega, Zenith and Bulova.
Very true
Even a mechanical watch is ticking along next to the incredible glide of a spring drive
What is the watch in the second 20?
What about tuning fork watches? They seem almost the same as a spring drive
Where's the 70's tuning fork watches? that 300hz second hand sweep is to die for

Do All brands produce sweep quartz? If please make a vdo on all brands like timex , casio , tissot, seiko ,bulovo , like affordable brands
I love my precisionist there are zero cooler movements in that price bracket
Seiko is in a class of its own 👌
The sweep of the spring drive sure looks cool, but i like my watches purely mechanical, without electricity involved.
my 30 dollar battery wall clock also sweep smoothly
Love a sweeping Second hand!!
Thanks a lot for the information.
Thank you good sir
What about the Bulova Accutron the old school ones those sweeps were insanely smooth :)
Accutrons sweep also.
Is there a watch that has its second hand being in an infinite different positions, being a continuous movement?
What's that super expensive citizen called? That movement is wild.
“and a mainspring” zooms into hairspring
What do you think of vario watches?
It literally is a pure sweep, it does not tick at all thanks to how the movement works. The second hand never stops, but is instead slowed down electromagnetically by the small electric charge generated by the escapement.
