I just recieved a watch from my uncle, and i wanted to find out the cost of the watch so I went to the Citizen Watches homepage and i found these watches that run without batteries, but mine runs on batteries i think, I was just wondering how these watches work without batteries, I don't think they are wind up watches, but maybe they are can someone explain how these watches run without batteries and how do wind up watches work anyways?
Thanks!

The way the citizen watch function without batteries is because there's a mechanism inside the watch that has a little coil with 2 gears that receives energy from your wrist movements that movements goes to the little coil with 2 gears and that mechanism storages energy from your wrist movements in few words you have a watch for life!
Good Luck!

Ah young people, aren't you amazed at what technology we had in the dark ages?
First wind up watches have a spring that you- get this, wind up. This stores energy which is slowly released to a spinning wheel which trips a lever to move the hands. It is more complex than that but essentially correct.
Self winding watches are the same but they have a little weight inside that swings when you move the watch winding the spring. I have a self winding that keeps very good time and as long as I wear three or four hours a day it stays wound. A full wind up is good for 36 hours. No battery to go dead just when you really need to know the tim.
