Automatic Watches

There's something irreplaceable about a mechanical watch — the sweep of the second hand, the weight on the wrist, the knowledge that hundreds of moving parts are working in unison. Paul Rich automatic watches deliver that experience with Miyota movements,...

Every automatic in our collection is self-winding, powered by the natural motion of your wrist. No batteries, no compromises. Pair that with sapphire crystal glass, frosted stainless steel finishes, and case sizes from 42mm to 45mm, and you get a mechanical watch that competes with brands charging three to five times our price.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or buying your first mechanical timepiece, the Paul Rich automatic lineup offers genuine horological value. Browse the collection and experience the difference a real movement makes.

Quartz

A quartz movement in a watch is a type of electronic movement that uses a small piece of quartz crystal to keep time. When an electrical current passes through the crystal, it vibrates at a consistent frequency, which regulates the timekeeping mechanism in the watch. This makes the seconds hand tick once per second in a smooth and continuous motion.

Automatic

An automatic movement, on the other hand, is a mechanical movement that is powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist. As the wrist moves, a rotor inside the watch spins and winds the mainspring of the watch, which powers the timekeeping mechanism. The seconds hand on an automatic watch moves in a sweeping motion, making multiple small ticks per second, rather than once per second like a quartz watch.
