Watch Winder + Safe Box: The Golden Rule of Buying Watches

What tips do you know about buying (wearing) watches? Every man should know the following rules:

• You should have a "wear-resistant" watch

Wear-resistant: commendatory, means that the quality is excellent and will not break easily, with a classic design. Its price depends on your budget, ranging from $10 to $10,000. You can work at home, travel outdoors, or play with your children wearing it. It has to meet two requirements: on the one hand, it should match your style, on the other hand, you don’t feel bad about it even if it is broken. It can be used as a sports watch, it is also a "tool watch."2.

•  Changing the strap can make an old watch rejuvenate

When an old watch was replaced with a new strap, it will look like a new watch. You can try to change different styles of straps. But if you are not sure how to change the strap, it is best to find a professional.

• If possible, the watch winder can be considered

If you have a lot of watches in your collection, buy a watch winder so that they are accurate no matter when you need to wear them.

• Soap and warm water are enough to clean the watch

Don’t make it so difficult to clean your watch. Just use soap and warm water (not hot water!). Certain detergents and very hot water can cause damage to your watch.

• Adjust the strap to extend the life of the strap

Want to extend the life of a leather strap? You can consider easing it a little, so that when you put it on or take it off, it won’t be worn out due to repeated stretching of the strap.

• When buying a watch, the size of the watch is crucial

How do you judge whether a watch is big or small for your wrist? The lugs and case of the watch can never exceed the width of your wrist. No matter how big the watch is, its diameter should not exceed your wrist. Don't expect to wear a big watch to show your macho temperament, it will only make you look special.

• Legibility should also be your priority when buying a watch

When you buy a watch, you should be able to read the time clearly. You have to make sure that the pointer of the watch is long enough and that the pointer color contrasts sharply with the dial color. This allows you to easily read the time at any angle under any lighting conditions. If your watch can’t even tell the time, there is no doubt that it will lie down in your drawer and sleep well.

• Wear different styles of watches on different occasions

Watches and shoes are very similar. If you wear only one pair of shoes for any occasion, then you must have no friends. Watches are the same. Wear a suit or jeans, you have to wear different watches. You also need different types of watches when you travel outdoors or do sports.

The mechanical watch that is not worn for a long time should be placed in the watch winder, and choose the number and direction of rotation that matches your movement, to avoid the watch from standing for a long time and accumulate oil, and it is easy to destroy sealing performance to adjust the time by manually unscrewing the crown too many times.
