Automatic is a movement with a swinging weight inside that winds a mainspring.
Hand wind is just that. A Duo-Wind is an early automatic that can also be wound by hand. Most all automatics (self winding) are Duo-wind.
Accutron, Accuquartz (an early quartz crystal /Accutron Hybrid) and quartz movements have their power supplied by a battery. The kinetic power to run the watch is from electrically stimulated vibration of a tuning fork (Accutron), quartz crystal or a combination (Accuquartz).
Subject watch is considered a self winding or automatic watch. Early automatics were referred to as Duo-wind, then self winding, and finally automatic.
Hand winding and automatics fall under the general category of "mechanical". All others are considered "electronic" for lack of a better word.
