QUÉ SIGNIFICA WATCH EN INGLÉS

Reloj

Watch

Un reloj es un reloj, principalmente y típicamente usado alrededor de la muñeca - un reloj de pulsera - o conectado a una cadena de reloj y llevado en un bolsillo - un reloj de bolsillo. Los relojes evolucionaron en el siglo XVII de los relojes accionados por la primavera, que aparecieron ya en el siglo XV. Los primeros relojes eran estrictamente mecánicos, impulsados ​​por un reloj. A medida que avanzaba la tecnología, los dispositivos mecánicos, utilizados para controlar la velocidad del reloj, fueron reemplazados en gran medida por cristales de cuarzo vibrantes, produciendo pulsos electrónicos con tiempos precisos. El primer reloj electrónico digital fue desarrollado en 1970. En la década de 1920, los relojes de bolsillo eran más populares que los relojes de pulsera. La mayoría de los relojes baratos y de precio medio, utilizados principalmente para el cronometraje, son relojes electrónicos con movimientos de cuarzo. Los relojes coleccionables más caros, más valorados por su elaborada artesanía, su atractivo estético y su diseño glamoroso que por el simple manejo del tiempo, suelen tener movimientos puramente mecánicos y son accionados por resortes, aunque los movimientos mecánicos son generalmente menos precisos y más caros que los movimientos electrónicos.

A watch is a timepiece, mainly and typically worn either around the wrist - a wristwatch - or attached to a watch chain and carried in a pocket - a pocket watch. Watches evolved in the 17th century from spring-powered clocks, which appeared as early as the 15th century. The first watches were strictly mechanical, driven by clockwork. As technology progressed, mechanical devices, used to control the speed of the watch, were largely superseded by vibrating quartz crystals, producing accurately timed electronic pulses. The first digital electronic watch was developed in 1970. In the 1920s, pocket watches were more popular than wristwatches. Most inexpensive and medium-priced watches, used mainly for timekeeping, are electronic watches with quartz movements. Expensive collectible watches, valued more for their elaborate craftsmanship, aesthetic appeal and glamorous design than for simple timekeeping, often have purely mechanical movements and are powered by springs, even though mechanical movements are generally less accurate and more expensive than electronic movements.
