It uses a rotating rotor that moves with the wearer's wrist to wind the mainspring automatically — no battery or manual winding required under normal wear conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What does \"hollow\" or \"skeleton\" mean for this watch movement?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: A hollow or skeleton movement has portions of the plate and bridges cut away, revealing the internal components — gears, balance wheel, and escapement — through an open-work design.
