In theory,it works like this:
1.Battery provides current to microchip circuit.
2.Microchip circuit makes quartz crystal (precisely cut and shape like a tuning fork)oscillate(vibrate)32768 times per second.
3.Microchip circuit detects the crystal's oscillations and turns them into regular electric pulses,one per second.
4.Electric pulses drive miniature electric stepping motor.This converts electrical energy into mechanical power.
5.Electric stepping motor turns gears.
6.Gears sweep hands around the clock face to keep time.
Hope this helps!
