What is an automatic watch?

The UNIMATIC automatic watch is a self-winding mechanical timepiece powered not by a battery, but by the natural kinetic energy generated from the wearer’s arm movements. Automatic watches are more sensitive to factors like temperature fluctuations, impacts, and how they are worn. Consequently, they may not run as precisely as quartz watches, and any timekeeping variations depend on the specific movement type. Based on experience, new mechanical watches may initially show slight time inaccuracies, which generally self-regulate over time.
