Shock resistance is the ability of a watch to withstand shock impacts or jolts without causing damage to its movement or affecting timekeeping accuracy. This durability is realized through shock-absorbing components - for instance, Inca-bloc or other special systems - that protect sensitive parts of the balance wheel from forces created by shocks.

Watches with high shock resistance are designed to withstand heavy daily use, including activities that cause physical movement and potential collisions. It is especially crucial for sport watches, tool watches, and other watches meant for energetic lifestyles. Indeed, shock resistance is what strengthens the watch's toughness while ensuring that even in tough situations, the timepiece still functions accurately.
