How to Care for Your Watch
Regular watch maintenance is key to ensuring your timepiece remains in good working order. Here are some tips from our experts:
-
Regular Servicing: For mechanical and automatic watches, it’s essential to get a full movement overhaul every 3-5 years to keep the internal parts lubricated and running smoothly.
-
Water Resistance Checks: If your watch is regularly exposed to water, we recommend having the seals checked and replaced every year to maintain water resistance.
-
Battery Replacement: Quartz watches require battery changes every 1-2 years. Failing to replace a dead battery can lead to leakage and damage to the internal movement.
-
Avoid Magnetic Fields: Magnetic fields can affect the accuracy of mechanical watches. Be cautious of placing your watch near electronics like phones or speakers.
-
Proper Storage: When not in use, store your watch in a watch box or case to prevent scratches and exposure to dust.
