Hello and welcome on another time and space journey with Watches TV. Today we will talk about three exceptionally interesting precision timekeepers and the technical beauty of the mechanisms hidden inside them. We also decided to highlight the beauty and pertinence of mechanical art in comparison to the limits of electronic devices and their intrinsic programmed obsolescence. Spoiler alert: mechanical timepieces win.

So the first two pieces have quartz movements and the last one, the oldest, has a mechanical heart with a detent escapement. All of them represent one branch of watch mechanisms, that are insanely precise and helped humanity to progress.

Enjoy, comment, and... Power to the world of analog mechanical timepieces, long live the beauty of mechanical movements!
