From YouTube: How a Mechanical Watch Movement Works

I love my mechanical watches, and I get a lot of pleasure from knowing how intricately designed and assembled they are.

But exactly how that little spring inside turns those gears to make the watch is basically a mystery to me.

This video on YouTube explains the process in a very clear way with outstanding visual animation. Check it out.

Also, don’t miss this Hodinkee explainer that explains how Omega’s co-axial escapement differs from the normal Swiss lever escapement that’s shown in the video.

thanks to my dad for sharing the video
