But how does an automatic watch work?

An automatic watch, unlike a quartz watch, has no electronic device inside it (including batteries). The functionality of the hands and of the complications is made possible through a mechanical movement of different gears inside the mechanism, grafted by a spring that is decompresses (charged with kinetic force) after being compressed through a charge rotor. Every time the arm wearing the watch moves, this rotor starts working, giving unlimited power to the device.
