A little confused here. The narrative speaks of an automatic movement, but the specifications list it as a quartz movement. Those two are mutually exclusive of one another. Automatic means it's spring actuated movement and automatically winds with the motion of your wrist and/or a winding crown. Quartz means that it runs on electricity from a watch battery, using the pulsations of a quartz crystal to keep time. Perhaps someone here can resolve this contradiction.

Basket77" If moonphase watches are uncommon, moonphase calendar watches are unicorns in the world of watches—especially if we’re talking about automatic movements. So, to get one, typically you’ve gotta spring for quartz. The Carnot Riviera, a 40-millimeter quartz dress watch..."
I read that differently. I think what they mean to say is that moonphase calendars are either automatic and expensive, or quartz and inexpensive. I would've written this copy differently, but they're not tricking people into thinking it's an automatic.
