 DETAILS: where watches evolved from portable spring-driven

 PARAGRAPHS: The history of watches began in 16th century
Europe, where watches evolved from portable spring-driven
clocks, which first appeared in the 15th century. The watch
which developed from the 16th century to the mid 20th
century was a mechanical device, powered by winding a
mainspring which turned gears and then moved the hands,
and kept time with a rotating balance wheel. The invention of
the quartz watch in the 1960s, which ran on electricity and
kept time with a vibrating quartz crystal, proved a radical
departure for the industry. During the 1980s quartz watches
took over the market from mechanical watches, an event
referred to as the "quartz crisis". Although mechanical
watches still sell at the high end of the market, the vast
majority of watches now have quartz movements.
