Watch common sense to master the secrets of longevity watch

According to historical records, as early as two thousand years ago in the Zhou Dynasty, China had a list of ways to record the hourglasses and keep a record of their lives. For thousands of years people have lived this way. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a certain development in China's clock and watch industry. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, China became the largest importer of watches and clocks in the world. At the same time Emperor Kangxi also decreed to establish a watchmaking bureau, and Emperor Qianlong built a watch and clock workshop in the palace , Followed by a gradual increase in timekeeping methods, the increasingly sophisticated timekeeping tools, and the proliferation of various timepieces throughout the country.

This shows that the Chinese watch culture can be described as a long history, but its corresponding watch maintenance common sense is also a long history with the clock and watch culture can write a "history book"? Whether it is as the "Book of Songs," the elderly and the elderly familiar with it? Now we watch the whole watch world from the small fulcrum of the watch.

We visited the watch repair centers in many cities, but also thousands of watch users conducted a survey, the final conclusion we disappointed, through the data showed that only 11% of users have a detailed understanding of maintenance knowledge, 8% of users have a certain understanding of maintenance knowledge, however, 81% of users in this area there is a huge gap and the wrong point of view. At the same time, we also learned that nearly 78% of the watches are used repeatedly due to improper maintenance, and the life cycle is shortened.

However, in the face of deserted watch maintenance status, what should we take to save our beloved watch? How can we turn the tide to turn the tide? How should we redeem watches?

Comprehensive watch industry all masters of advice and views, we summed up two tips: First, we must have the correct maintenance thinking; the second is to have appropriate maintenance tools.

Tip One: The correct maintenance thinking

First: watches should pay attention to "four defenses."

"Shockproof" watch is a very sophisticated instrument, hundreds of parts can be contained in a tiny space of not more than a few centimeters, and damage, loosening or displacement of one of the parts may cause the watch to go inaccurate or even stop Walking and other failures.

The impact on the appearance is "five off": off the scale, off the needle, off the bolt, off the diamond, off the mirror.

"Magnetically shielded" to avoid close to the magnetic field, for example on the magnetic field of electrical appliances (such as audio, refrigerator, computer, etc.), magnetic objects (such as magnets, mobile phones) next to another lady's handbag switch button, The deduction may be by the watch by the magnetic, causing the watch is not allowed to go or temporary stop walking.

"Waterproof" General watches have a waterproof function, but if used improperly, the mirror is prone to water fog, hazy, blurred. Severe water infiltration, infiltration into the movement, movement rusty, resulting in damage to the movement, shorten the life of the watch. Therefore, experts suggest that the watch water not only to take the simplest air-dried, but should watch a cleaning and fuel maintenance, to protect the movement from damage.

"Anti-flower" watch after the purchase of a period of time, we will find that their original smooth and beautiful appearance has long been beyond recognition, all kinds of scratches are all over the mirror, bezel, bracelet. The original glory of us, but today they are eclipsed by us can only be left in the dark corner of the drawer. So we have to raise our awareness of "anti-flower" and pay attention to the following three:

A: The watch should not be placed inside the messy drawer.

Second: watch not to be placed in the coffee table, bonsai, fruit knives and other sharp objects next to.

Three: or from time to time to send it to the maintenance center for polishing.

Second: the high-end watches every two to three years should be made accordingly maintenance, replacement of waterproof components, travel time and performance testing movement power consumption, cleaning the movement, and maintenance of appearance, such maintenance services will effectively extend our watch usage time.

Tip two: proper maintenance tools

Through the investigation of data analysis, we found a wide range of watch problems behind a surprising acquaintance, that is, the lack of maintenance tools. If each watch user has some good maintenance tools, then a lot of watch problems will disappear, no longer exists.

As the saying goes, "a good horse with a good saddle," a high-end watches, you have to match some good maintenance tools, so that not only can increase the grade watches, watches and more good care. Therefore, many experts suggest that the majority of watch users to buy a rocker as a maintenance tool.

However, why use a rocker? Four reasons

Reason one: Today's precision mechanical watch movement are based on long-lasting operation as a design basis, these mechanical movement such as long-term stationary, the movement of the gear shaft bearings within the oil will be dispersed around the movement of moving parts such as Long-term operation in under-lubrication conditions will result in permanent wear.

In order to keep the watch running for a long time, we must get the right amount of exercise on a daily basis to make the thallium swing to achieve the winding function. And automatic shake table will be able to provide appropriate watch movement, so that the movement to maintain a permanent movement and thus the movement of the oil will not flow; Furthermore, also be exempt from the watch after each tuning to re-adjust the display , In order to reduce the constant adjustment and damage to the watch parts, and make the watch can be long-term standby, convenient for users to wear at any time.

Two reasons: shake table not only for watch continuous operation to provide energy, but also to watch a more comfortable and secure collection room. This will not only reduce the probability of scratches, but also reduce the probability of falling.

Three reasons: placed in the corner for a long time did not wear the watch has long been covered with dust, scratches with a dry cloth, afraid of scratching the table mirror, wiping with a damp watch afraid of water, dilemma, dilemma. And have a shake table will be able to easily eliminate such a problem.

Reason 4: A delicate rocker placed in the home, not only can be seen as a simple tool, but also can be regarded as one of the decorations in the home, beautiful, refined and elegant, to the guests a fresh a feeling of.

"Theoretical guidance practice", with the correct maintenance thinking, equipped with first-class maintenance tools, you no longer need to regret to accompany your watch premature death, no need to lament accompany your watch full of conditions, all the watches are not a problem, Your watch will be able to live longer, accompany your watch, you will be able to accompany your children and grandchildren.
