The clock was first used in Egypt around 4000 BC. The Egyptians discovered that the Sun rises and sets in a certain order every day. Taking advantage of this, they succeeded in inventing the sundial. In this type of clock, the hour was calculated by looking at the shadow length formed by an upright object according to the angle of incidence of the sun. However, the sundial was lacking. He could not work at night because there was no sun. The ancient Egyptians then invented the hourglass and the water clock.
The date 1524 went down in history as the first date in which wind-up
watches were made. German locksmith Peter Henlien produced the first known wind-up watch in history.
In the 1550s, the number of mechanical watches in the world had increased tremendously, and the winding watches were replaced by mechanical watches. Most of the watches produced were of German and French production.
In 1575, Swedish and English manufacturers appeared. However, at that time, watches were seen as an accessory tool. In other words, watches were a fashion attempt, apart from the development of the watch literally.
Changes after 1600 did not essentially change this view of fashion and accessories. Now watches were seen as pure jewelry and were worth jewelry.
The first pendulum clock was produced in 1656.
In 1704, a manufacturer named Dullier tried to replace some of the Brass pieces with jewelry.
In 1721, good things were happening for the development of the clock. The first pendulum clock was invented. The pendulum clock made by George Graham revolutionized the present time with its punctuality. This pendulum clock was only running 1 second a day.
The watch made by John Harrison in 1761 was the one with the lowest strabismus rate of any watch ever made. Surprisingly only 0.02 seconds per day, this watch's producer, John Jarrison, was awarded prize money. The prize awarded was exactly $10 million.
In 1800, a pocket chronometer was made for the first time, meaning the second was pocketed for the first time.
In 1850, a large-scale watch factory was opened for the first time in America, and mass production began for the first time.
In 1952, battery-powered watches began to be produced for the first time, these miraculous watches were working thanks to a miraculous structure called the "battery", and had a structure that could not reach the durability and precision that no winding watch could match.
In 1970, the first electronic clocks in history began to appear in the markets.
