With watches, as indeed time in general, a huge the number of interesting and sometimes mystical events. Many, for example, interested in the question why the clock stops at those moments when something happens to their master.
Before mystifying the cause of a watch malfunction, you should understand the very principle of a device from a mechanism that akin to a car’s device: “body”, “engine”, “counters”, “clamps”. The reason for stopping the operation of the device most often becomes a breakdown of the “engine” (clockwork).
All types of watch movements can be divided into three main groups: mechanical, quartz and electronic.
When a quartz or electronic watch goes down, it’s explainable – the battery just ran out of power. Although more possible deep reasons.
In the quartz mechanism, the main source of energy is electronic unit and stepper motor. The first reports impulse to the second, which, in turn, rotates the arrows.
The quartz movement got its name due to the presence in based on a quartz crystal, which is a source of oscillations with uniform impulses transmitted to the clock engine. Quartz is a dielectric and piezoelectric, that is, it is capable of deformation to generate an electric charge on its own surface (electric field). The quartz crystal has a high accuracy of the pulse and the generated oscillation frequency, which means clock accuracy. In such a mechanism, the power source is a battery that transfers charge to the engine.
The device of a mechanical watch has essentially not undergone significant changes from the moment they appear to this day. They are based on the role of the oscillation source performs a balance-spiral link, where the balance moves according to the principle of a pendulum and untwists a spring rotating clock hands. At the same time, certain Electrically charged particles forming an electric field.
Scientists have proved that man himself is a kind of generator of electromagnetic waves (human biofield), as well as excellent electrical conductor.
All living beings, including humans, have energy “shell”. And in moments of strong emotional, and mean energy voltage is our electromagnetic field capable of piezoelectric effect – electrical discharge. And indeed many have noticed how static from touching of a person to a subject, a discharge and a click occur, and in even a spark can be seen in the dark.
American scientist E. Menefi actively engaged in the study of electromagnetic fields of all “living” in the middle of the past centuries. And he introduced the concept of “bioelectret” – dependence electromagnetic field of a living organism from external factors.
Therefore, stories with stopping clockwork do not seem so mystical. After all, a watch, having its own energy field, “fit” into the energy field of the object with which closely interact for a long time. It usually takes about two months, whether it’s a wall (floor) clock, or a wrist watch – they “integrate” into the general energy flow of their environment (room or person).
A particularly strong effect of this relationship between a person and a watch was seen in cases where the watch was made using natural materials (genuine leather, wood, gold, silver).
And the occurrence of a situation when, by virtue of a sharp emotional shock of a person, his “bioelectret” generated so much electrical energy transmitted and acting on the clockwork (balancer or crystal quartz), which led to a malfunction in the work (stop) of the clock.
Similarly, in the case of death of a person – there is a termination generating its energy and its participation in the general energy chain, which leads to a violation of the integrity of the entire bioenergy system and, as a result, the watch is out of order.
