Answer:

because Quartz clocks operate on thin quartz crystal wafer made to vibrate in hundreds of kilohertz. ... A pendulum clock can only make about 2 vibrations per second. A 1 % error is very significant here since 1 % of 2 is 0.02 seconds. ... Just remember that quartz work more efficiently than a pendulum.

Answer:

A quartz clock is less sensitive to environmental conditions. Anything that changes the length of a pendulum, such as temperature or interference, and anything that changes the gravitational field, such as tidal forces and any movement of the clock itself, affects the rate of a pendulum.

There is a more fundamental issue. A one-second pendulum beats only 86,400 times per day. The cheapest quartz mechanism beats 1,192,755,200 times per day, 32,768 ( 215 ) times faster. That means that if you have a highly accurate clock, and you are setting the rate of your own clock to match it, you can get a 32,768 times more precise setting in the same period of time.
