As someone who has been into mechanical watches since I was kid, this article is beyond amazing and explains everything about how a watch is powered with excellent interactive diagrams and cool animations. The author should try to go after other areas of mechanical movement like operation of a car or a plane. So well done!
He didn't do planes yet but he did the internal combustion engine: https://ciechanow.ski/internal-combustion-engine/ and boats: https://ciechanow.ski/naval-architecture/
I could post more but just go to the archives and see. Every single one is a treasure and there are few enough that you can read them all: https://ciechanow.ski/archives/
