Type
Mechanism
Written by: FZEDC· Hong Kong

A mechanical movement wound by turning the crown by hand.

用手转动表冠上弦的机械机芯。

A manual-wind movement is a mechanical movement powered by a mainspring that the wearer winds by turning the crown. Unlike an automatic, it has no rotor to wind itself from wrist motion.

Many collectors enjoy the daily ritual of winding and the thinner movement it allows.

手动上弦机芯是由发条驱动的机械机芯，佩戴者转动表冠为其上弦。与自动机芯不同，它没有能借手腕摆动自动上弦的摆陀。

很多收藏者喜欢每天上弦的仪式感，也喜欢它能让机芯做得更薄。
