When a user shops for a mechanical watch, there are two types of mechanical movement to choose from: manual or automatic. Mechanical watches do not require batteries to run because they have a complex set of springs and gears to operate the watch. When a buyer wears an automatic watch every day, the rotor inside it uses the energy from the wrist's movement to run the mainspring of the watch automatically. In addition, the second hand of an automatic watch moves more smoothly instead of ticking once per second in a manual mechanical watch.
If there is excellent craftsmanship in the making of automatic watches, their lifespan can be indefinite. The only time when an automatic watch stops working is when the user stops wearing it. Unlike automatic watches, a manual mechanical watch requires a user to manually rotate the crown (on the side of the watch) about every two days to start the piece. These differences have made automatic watches become a more popular choice. Additionally, an automatic watch can give a user up to 38 hours of power which means the user can take it off at night. This type of watch also shows slightly more accurate time because it runs constantly, as long as the user wears it regularly.
Automatic watches for men usually have more distinctive styles focusing more on the dial display and the strap material. The material of the band, or strap, ranges from titanium, and leather, to stainless steel, rubber, and silicone. These straps are often in dark colors such as tan, black, dark blue, gray, and brown, and there are also yellow-gold metal straps to show boldness. The dial display is often larger and thicker, along with bigger straps, to accommodate men's wrists. Automatic watches for women typically come with thinner bands, although some watches for females offer wide bands with a sporty look. The color options for female watches vary more for both display and straps, and buyers can customize embellishments and jewels on the watch display. Many modern automatic watches for women have diamonds and stones that are hand-crafted into the watches.
Men's skeleton watch is another style that has been the center of attention for female and male buyers. A skeleton watch refers to the unique display on the face of a mechanical watch. The mechanism of the watch is exposed behind the transparent window, hence the name "skeleton". Many mechanical watches for men have this style in both automatic and manual types. Jewels can also be handcrafted onto a skeleton watch to complement the moving parts of the watch.
Many suppliers offer a variety of materials and jewels, including diamonds and stones, to customize a luxury automatic watch. These customized orders are available in large quantities with wholesale discounts on Alibaba.com.
