China This technology is Japanese, but manufactured in China for the MVMT watches. This sends up a little red flag for me. The brand emphasizes how their products are designed in LA, but never mentions where they are manufactured.

The Quartz Movement

• These watches are battery-powered and are known for their reliability.
• Quartz movements are low maintenance with no winding required and services costing much less as the battery is easy to replace.
• Also, the watches are generally much less as they are easier to make and not as complex.

We didn't look past one feature when designing MVMT. Our battery-powered quartz watches use a Japanese Miyota Precision Quartz Movement, which is one of the most well known and trusted in the industry.

The three primary types of watch movement are mechanical movement, automatic movement, and quartz movement. These types of movement were invented in the order they are listed above – mechanical first, then automatic, then quartz. Watchmaking is both an art and a craft.

The movement drives all timekeeping functions and is essential to keeping accurate time. A watch would not function without it. There are countless different movements created by watch manufactures that utilize proprietary innovations, but each of these movements falls into one of two categories: quartz or mechanical.
