Its an all quartz watch with all of the hand synchronizing done through a series of button presses and/or touches of the glass. The hands do move in a mechanical sense when you touch the glass on the outer ring. They move around and act like a compass when you touch the compass text and barometer but do not for chrono, temp and altimeter mode.
