These unusual movements are characterised by:
  • Balance Wheel
  • Quartz Control (no contacts)

In the first picture, the Timex Model 63, produced in 1973, has a Moving Coil, Quartz-Controlled movement while the second picture shows a Luch 3055, produced in 1981, with a Fixed Coil, Quartz-Controlled movement,
