Discoverers and scientists have made a large contribution in the history of mankind: the transition of “manual” to “automatic”. We can define “automatic” as being involuntary; self-regulated; running or operating in a certain way that is independent of external factors. Allow me to discuss with you how “automaticity” works with watches.

Automatic watches are mechanical devices that winds by itself. It became popular in the US, especially the branded ones, by the year 1993 to 1995. The main key to automatic watches, the Rotor System that is being attached to its winding machinery, was developed by Emile Borer. He was the technician of Rolex Company, the one who first created automatic watches. But the credits should not be given to him since in the year of 1770, Abraham Louis-Perrelet, a watchmaker in Switzerland was the one who first brought out the Rotor System into the world.

Along with the mentioned system is the one which they call the “power reserve”. With power reserve, automatic watches work almost perfectly and at the same time, accurate and reliable. It enables the motions of the watch to keep running from 36 to 72 hours. Your automatic watch will keep on working for longer hours depending on the size of the power reserve. The bigger, the better. It will keep on going without winding it or adjusting it manually. But keep in mind that it is still best to wind your watch manually once or twice a week for a better performance.

Within the past decade, it flourished in America making a tremendous mark in the history or human technology. Automatic watches are clearly sweeping the edge over manually-operated watches. Regardless of what style, design or color, automatic watches are best suitable for those people who wear them everyday and want to keep guard of every minute. Whether you are a sporty chic, an adventurer, a gentleman or a hippie, these kinds of watches will certainly fit your lifestyle. To conclude, they are more appealing to mankind since they are more affordable in the sense that you do not have to buy batteries from time to time to keep your watch working.

One of the leading brand and best-selling watches nowadays is FOSSIL. It is an American brand and began to make waves in the year 1984. With Fossil, one will absolutely have a hard time choosing which  to buy not because the right watch can’t be found but because all Fossil watches are right to one’s taste.

“Time is Gold”, as the saying goes for those who keep hold of their time. Some have been very particular and accurate and there are those who just waste for they prefer to be unoccupied at the moment. For those who highly considers that every second counts, watches should be taking part into their lives.

But it’s not just about having a watch that tells you the time, it also entails sophistication in choosing the proper design for your present lifestyle. Let’s take a peek at one of the prides of a French watch designer, the  history of Cartier watches.

The Cartier began as a jewelry industry in 1847 when the workshop of Adolphe Picard was taken over by his assistant Louis-Francois Cartier at 29 rue Montorgueil in Paris. His first touch with watch making and designing started in 1904 when his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont asked him to redesign his watch in a way that it won’t him while flying.

Louis became successful with it and from then started including watches in his chosen field. Through an intensive research in the 1912, Louis was able to come up one of his greatest inventions, the Mysterious Clock. The hands of this clock seem to float into space and are being concentrated at the central crystal disk. During the World War I and onwards, he began the application of abstract design in his watches using onyx and diamonds.

By the year 1977, a vermeil watch was created with a modern dial. It has been the “apple of the eye” by many and very much been fetished by Yves Saint Laurent’s. He always chooses this watch during his photo shoots. 1978 was the year when Louis  redesigned the watch he created for Dumont. He used steel and gold with which he called the Santos de Cartier.

In the middle of the 19^th century, he gave credits of the newly evolving round watches by that time by creating the Pasha watch. It is the watch that symbolizes power as it is surrounded with a case of 18-carat gold. It is also water resistant of up to 100 meters and also sand since it is a double-layer protection crown.

For more than a century, Cartier has clearly been successful in being in-line with the very competitive watch industry all over the world. Cartier watches are considered to be expensive and luxurious in quality because of the jewelries in it but every penny is worth the look and functioning.

Much has already been accomplished by the evolving industry of Seiko until now. It has extended its abilities to the Seiko Kinetic Chronograph, a timing device and a power source that charges by itself. In addition is the Perpetual Calendar design where the calendar adjusts automatically until the next century. Other features include alarm clocks and having secondary time zone.

If you are that guy who has a variety of taste and is having a hard time in choosing the right Seiko watch, the company has laid out all its options for you to pick what best suites you. Seiko watches range from being simple but classy, sporty, adventurous, corporate, luxurious yet definitive. All of these styles comes with precise timing and accuracy, and can last for years. Yes, you read that right! All of the excellent features of an ideal watch can be found in Seiko watches.

Last year marked the release of five amazing products: Spring Drive, Velatura, Sportura, Premier and Actura.

Spring Drive watches are the only watch that uses the users hand movements as power source. It has 72 hours of reserved power, and is highly accurate.
