About quartz watches

A quartz watch keeps time with a quartz crystal. Most run on a battery that needs replacing from time to time; some, such as Citizen Eco-Drive, are quartz watches charged by light. The listing says which. If you would rather not change batteries, see solar or automatic watches.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the water-resistance rating mean?

It is set by the maker, and what each rating allows differs slightly between brands. As a guide, "water resistant" with no depth and 30 m cover rain and splashes, 100 m suits swimming and snorkelling, and 200 m suits skin diving. The rating is on every listing — check the maker's guidance before taking a watch into the water.

What size are these watches?

Half of the watches on this page with a manufacturer measurement are between 32.5 and 43.8 mm across. The case size is on every listing.

What is a quartz watch?
