7 mitos y VERDADES del CUARZO en la Relojeria

Is quartz cheap? Disposable? Soulless? In this episode of Crononauta, we debunk—with technical rigor, history, and real-world examples of movements—the 7 biggest myths about quartz that still circulate in the watchmaking community. We analyze the physics behind the 32,768 Hz oscillator, its actual accuracy compared to mechanical movements like the ETA 2824-2, the Rolex 3235, or the Seiko 4R36, and review high-end quartz watches such as the Grand Seiko 9F, Citizen A660, Breitling SuperQuartz, ETA Thermoline, Seiko 7C46, Bulova Precisionist, and many more. We also explain why gravity affects mechanical watches more, while temperature affects quartz watches more, how solar, kinetic, and temperature-compensated quartz movements work, and why quartz isn't disposable: what's disposable is the cheap watch. This video is a complete guide to understanding quartz from the perspectives of engineering, history, and watchmaking culture. Precision, physics, and horological truth. No myths. No smoke and mirrors. #watches #watchmaking #quartz #watchmaking #horology #mechanicalwatches GrandSeiko #CitizenChronomaster #Breitling #Seiko #Casio #GShock Haute Horlogerie #WatchGeek #WatchCollector #Chrononaut #quartzmyths Japanesewatches #Swisswatches #HAQ #thermocompensated #watchmakingprecision
