Quartz movement

A QUARTZ MOVEMENT
A quartz movement is powered by a battery. Its regula-
tor (time-measuring device) is a quartz crystal. An elec-
trical current causes the crystal to vibrate very consist-
ently and at a very high frequency (32,768 times per
second). This gives the movement almost perfect preci-
sion (a variation of only a few seconds per month.)

Quartz movement

TAG HEUER QUARTZ MOVEMENTS
Quartz movements used by TAG Heuer are some of the
most reliable and accurate made in Switzer-
land. They are also distinguished by excellent resist-
ance to shocks and magnetic fields. TAG HEUER BATTERIES
The batteries for TAG Heuer quartz movements have a
service life of at least two years. END-OF-LIFE INDICATOR
For increased security, all TAG Heuer quartz watches
(except chronographs) are ?tted with an end of battery
life indicator (EOL). When the battery shows signs of
weakening, the seconds hand starts making four-sec-
ond jumps every four seconds. However, the movement
continues to display the exact time until the battery
is exhausted.
