Is quartz a good make of watch?

Many watch lovers believe that quartz is a good make of watch. With their electronic components, quartz watches can keep time reliably and require little maintenance beyond battery replacements and proper storage and cleaning, as recommended by the manufacturer. Quartz watches are often more economically priced than mechanical alternatives and don't require winding. However, one major downside of quartz watches is they typically don't last for as long as mechanical timepieces, as their electronic components wear out over time. While mechanical watches often remain in good enough condition to become heirloom pieces, quartz watches have an average lifespan of 20 to 30 years. Explore a selection of quartz watches on 1stDibs.

What is the life expectancy of a quartz watch?

The life expectancy of a quartz watch varies. However, well-made quartz timepieces can typically perform reliably for 20 to 30 years before the electronic components inside begin to wear out. To extend the life of your quartz watch for as long as possible, be sure to follow the maker's care and maintenance instructions. Typically, you should keep your watch stored in a cool, dry place in its original packaging between uses to protect it from dust, sunlight, moisture and extreme temperatures. Explore a variety of quartz watches on 1stDibs.

Finding the Right Wrist-watches for You

Antique, vintage and luxury wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves — it's time you found your own.

Certain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.

Bulgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. If anything, elaborately crafted timepieces — the unmistakably boxy silhouette of Cartier Tank watches, the elegant and minimal Calatrava designed by legendary Swiss house Patek Philippe — are even more effective than the shape we associate with traditional wristwatches.

Form watches — the all-encompassing moniker bestowed upon non-round watches — are making headlines and completing contemporary fashionable ensembles the world over. At the same time, both casual fans and careful collectors are drawn to the unbeatable charm of vintage styles, such as the icons designed by Omega that even James Bond can’t resist.

In the early days of watchmaking, watches were fragile enough that they necessitated protection from the elements. Now, wristwatches made of gold and steel can withstand the harshest climates — even 100 meters underwater, in the case of Rolex’s Submariner. Designer Gérald Genta, whose range of clients included Rolex, created for Audemars Piguet the first luxury sports timepiece to be made from stainless steel. First introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak was a perfect choice for blending the form and function that are now synonymous with sports watches.

Are you shopping for a wristwatch? It’s good to keep your needs as well as your specific personal style in mind: A smaller, subtle timepiece is a good fit for small wrists. When will you be wearing your new accessory? There’s a versatile model out there for everyday wear, while a rugged, feature-heavy watch is a safe bet if you’re prone to embarking on all-weather activities in the great outdoors.

Is quartz a good make of watch?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024
Many watch lovers believe that quartz is a good make of watch. With their electronic components, quartz watches can keep time reliably and require little maintenance beyond battery replacements and proper storage and cleaning, as recommended by the manufacturer. Quartz watches are often more economically priced than mechanical alternatives and don't require winding. However, one major downside of quartz watches is they typically don't last for as long as mechanical timepieces, as their electronic components wear out over time. While mechanical watches often remain in good enough condition to become heirloom pieces, quartz watches have an average lifespan of 20 to 30 years. Explore a selection of quartz watches on 1stDibs.

1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024
