Quartz / Battery

The use of quartz crystals in clockmaking may have seemed like a quirky step to take at its conception. However, it has become a widely used practice amongst most clockmakers today, all around the world.

Quartz wall clocks are manufactured with an electronic oscillator that ends up being regulated by a quartz crystal. This generates a signal with accurate frequency, making them even more reliable for timekeeping than most mechanical models. Once it’s sufficiently designed, the oscillator counts this signal in cycles, down to the usual numeric hours, minutes and seconds.

Warren Marrison and J.W. Horton were the first to construct the perfect quartz clock model in 1927, through Bell Telephone Laboratories. Then, when digital electronics became a hot commodity in the 1980’s, quartz became the next big craze in timekeeping technology.

And quartz is still currently being used worldwide, despite the onset of so many more technological advances. It is integrated into most clocks and watches in everyday households; not to mention, most computers and any appliances fashioned with clocks use elements of quartz crystal these days.
