• The advent of Quartz clock technology, developed largely by General Time for use in the Apollo 11 Command Module, resulted in the reduction of mechanical clock production and sales, and the factory closed in 1988.
• He eventually turned to the piezo-electrical crystal to develop the first quartz clock.
• The Astron wristwatch, formally known as the Seiko Quartz-Astron 35SQ, was the world's first "quartz clock" wristwatch.
• Unlike the radio watches described above, which achieve atomic clock accuracy with quartz clock circuits which are corrected by radio time signals received from government atomic clocks, this watch contains a tiny cesium atomic clock on a chip.
• A clock with a dial indicating minutes was illustrated in a 1475 manuscript by Paulus Almanus, In 1927 the first quartz clock was built by Warren Marrison and J.W.

• It was in 1927 that he developed the first quartz clock while working with J.W.
• Seiko quickly developed quartz technology in preparation for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, and in 1963 launched the Seiko Crystal Chronometer, a dramatically smaller version of its previous quartz clock.
• The invention of the crystal oscillator and the quartz clock in the 1920s, which became the most accurate clock by the 1930s, shifted technological research in timekeeping to electronic methods, and escapement design ceased to play a role in advancing timekeeping precision.
• In addition to the beta 21 Electroquartz watches Omega also developed an 8192 Hz Electroquartz clock, this was Omega SA's first quartz production quartz clock and used a thermo-compensated quartz bar and integrated circuit, produced in very small numbers under caliber 1390.
• The quartz clock is a familiar device using the mineral.

• These should not be confused with more recent quartz pendulum clocks in which an electronic quartz clock module swings a pendulum.
• Both analog and stepped-movement quartz clocks use the Lavet-type stepping motor (see Quartz clock).
• In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Unisonic released a series of digital calculators that featured a quartz clock and an electronic game.
• This sound can often be heard as a rhythmic ticking, somewhat like a quartz clock, which fades in and out and can be heard by human ears in a relatively quiet environment.
