English term or phrase: watch crystal
The crystal is fundamental to the function of millions of diverse products, from space satellites to washing machines. Its position as the lowest cost quartz crystal belies its importance in the modern world.
It is eminently suitable for all portable applications where accurate time keeping and non-volatile data storage is required via a Real Time Clock e.g. R.F.I.D, Metering, Security & Access Control, POS Terminals.

piezoelektrisk krystall
Explanation:
Intially I thought quartz i.e. kvartsur / kvartskrystall.

Piezoelektrisitet er ein eigenskap nokre krystall har til å omdanne det mekaniske arbeidet dei vert utsett for, ved deformering, til elektrisitet.

A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating crystal of piezoelectric material to create an electrical signal with a very precise frequency. This frequency is commonly used to keep track of time (as in quartz wristwatches), to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits, and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters and receivers.
