For watches that do not use battery, once the reserve power is depleted, the watch will stop. Is this correct?

Yes.

Manual wind watches = have to wind the crown. Dont overwind. Then wind again when the watch stops.

Automatics = have to wind the crown. Shouldnt have problems with over winding because there is a release that will prevent overwinding. Then wear it daily so that the movement of your arm provides energy for the watch to keep going.

Automatic means you have a rotor that will wind it as you move about, thus eliminating the need to manually wind the watch. But, you still can manually win an automatic watch but not vice versa. I guess he missed out the "don't" part.

oh! not a problem, my question was no0b as well tongue.gif
So the way automatic works is that, the energy gained by moving around is transferred to the watch (is it kinetic?), hence no need to manually wind an automatic watch.

yes, kinetic energy turns into potential energy (the energy stored in the spring)
But some of us have more than 1 automatic watch, so when one watch is stored in the box, eventually the watch will stop. and you'll have it wind it to bring it to life again.

If I may ask then, once the reserve power is drained - would winding the crown makes the watch return to current timing, or have to set it manually?

have to set the time manually.
so far have not encountered an automatic watch that would return to the correct time.
you might need a quartz radio watch for this.

Buy what you like, not because of FOMO.

Watches, for the most parts, are pretty poor investments.

The ones which make good investments, most can’t afford/access.
