Automatic movements are often referred to as reflex actions or reflexes. These are involuntary, quick responses to stimuli that are controlled by the spinal cord without conscious thought. Examples include the knee jerk reflex or blinking in response to a sudden bright light.

What do the different movements of watches?

The two main categories are mechanical and quartz. Mechanical watches are split into two categories: manual and self-winding (aka automatic watch). Mechanical watches are powered by a wound spring that drives the gears. Automatic watches have a small spinning weight (called a rotor) that helps wind the spring which powers the watch. Manual watches rely on the watchwearer to wind the crown (knobs on a watch). Quartz watches are mostly powered by batteries and use the fast vibration of a quartz crystal to keep time.

What is the difference between quartz and automatic movements in watches?

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.
