Walter G. Cady built the first quartz crystal oscillator in 1921. However, the properties of quartz making this possible were first discovered by Jacques and Pierre Curie in 1880.
This refers to a Quartz Movement which means the watch is battery powered
Both a quartz watch and an escalator are examples of periodic movement.
1-day movement clocks only make sounds daily while quartz movement clocks constantly display the time on the timepiece itself.

Automatic watches are self-winding ie. they need no battery and are wound by the slightest movement of the owner's wrist. Rolex invented the modern automatic back in the 1930s. A quartz watch is powered by a battery - it keeps time by pulsing electrical current through the tiny quartz crystal, which oscillates at a predictable rate and hence keeps very accurate time. Quartz watches can have either an analog dial with the traditional hands or have a digital display - or both.
Quartz movement is more traditional. Kintetic quartz relies on different principles and is a bit more accurate.
Bulova invented the Accutron tuning fork watch movement. Noo winding, no ticking and unsurpassed accuracy, untill the Japanese invented the quartz movement.
A quartz movement is the common watch movement, with the repeating starting and stopping action. An automatic movement represents a higher standard of mechanical engineering.
Warren Marrison, who invented the first quartz clock in 1927.
No one country invented the quartz watch. America, Swiss and Japan all made important contributions to the making of the quartz watch.

Warren Marrison and J.W. Horton invented the first quartz crystal clock in 1927. Both men worked for Bell Telephone Laboratories.
