A Quartz Watch is battery powered and does not require winding. Eventually the battery will need to be replaced. An Automatic Watch is a mechanical watch that winds itself and does not require a battery. When worn daily, the movement of your wrist causes the mainspring to wind progressively, eliminating the need for additional winding. To start your automatic, you can hand wind it by rotating the crown clockwise a number of turns while in its normal operating position We recommend housing an automatic in a watch winder box.
A Manual Wind Watch is a mechanical watch that does not require a battery, but can only be wound by hand. To wind it, turn the crown clockwise while it is in its normal operating position until you feel resistance. This type of watch should be wound daily.

Automatic Watch With Time, Date,
The Automatic mechanical watch is self-winding once it is running. To start the watch, it must be wound at least six or seven times before you wear it. After that, your daily activity should wind the watch sufficiently to keep it running at night when it is not worn. If normal daily activity is not sufficient to wind the watch automatically, manual winding may be necessary.

"One thing that is true no matter how you use your time is that it’s impossible to get back. It is impossible to retrace your own steps and experience something twice. Even if you do the same exact thing as the past, it’s not the same as the first time. The most exhilarating and terrifying aspect of time is that it all goes by without stopping or slowing. Make the most of what you do the first time around, so that your future is not full of regrets. Be a time master and do the things that are important in your life"
