Wrist Watches Mechanical movements

Compared to electronic movements, mechanical watches are less accurate, often with errors of seconds per day, and they are sensitive to position, temperature and magnetism. They are also costly to produce, require regular maintenance and adjustment, and are more prone to failure. Nevertheless, the craftsmanship of mechanical watches still attracts interest from part of the watch-buying public. Skeleton watches are designed to leave the mechanism visible for aesthetic purposes.

Mechanical movements use an escapement mechanism to control and limit the unwinding and winding parts of a spring, converting what would otherwise be a simple unwinding into a controlled and periodic energy release. Mechanical movements also use a balance wheel together with the balance spring (also known as a hairspring) to control motion of the gear system of the watch in a manner analogous to the pendulum of a pendulum clock. The tourbillon, an optional part for mechanical movements, is a rotating frame for the escapement, which is used to cancel out or reduce the effects of gravitational bias to the timekeeping. Due to the complexity of designing a tourbillon, they are very expensive, and only found in "prestige" watches.

The pin-lever escapement (called the Roskopf movement after its inventor, Georges Frederic Roskopf), which is a cheaper version of the fully levered movement, was manufactured in huge quantities by many Swiss manufacturers as well as Timex, until it was replaced by quartz movements

2.Go window shopping. When you look around, you'll get a good idea about different styles and price ranges. There are so many unique watches out there and the best way to find something if you don't know what you want is to look around.

Antique Watches Maintenance Tips (2)

- If you must adjust counter-clockwise make it for small adjustments only (i.e. for minutes, NOT hours).

- Be careful and gentle when adjusting the movement speed (faster or slower). Don't make sharp movements, and don't touch other components in the movement especially the pendulum mechanism.

- Every 2-3 years it is necessary to service and oil vintage watches.

- IF the watch is dirty - allow the watch to run down, don't wind it again until you have it serviced by a qualified watch repair expert. Dust will absorb and remove -important lubricants and cause the movement pieces to wear down.

- To clean the case, dial and crystal you should use a cloth that does NOT leave fibers as these may get caught up in the movement. Check with your Watch repair expert to get an appropriate cloth.

- Keep your antiques watch away from magnets. Strong magnetic fields may affect the accuracy of your watch since some vintage watches were made with iron based components in the movement.

- Most Cases and Covers are fine components and will not handle abuse well. The watch should not be shaken, beaten, or stressed.

- Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-7 minutes a day. Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good.

Antique Watches Maintenance Tips (1)

All Antique watches are mechanical. Many repairs will not be cheap, as most likely they will require replacement of non-

standard parts (unlike most late model watches).

- Antique watches should not be beaten or dropped - because repairs may be expensive.

- Antique watches are generally NOT waterproof. This is because waterproofing was not in general production until the middle

of the 20th century for most watches. Therefore you should protect your antique watch from exposure to moisture.

- If your watch becomes wet it should be dried off quickly. Carefully open all covers and use a hair drier to blow dry the

movement, dial, covers, crown. This will reduce the amount of rust.

- If your watch becomes wet with any kind of salt water you should immediately immerse or spray your watch with fresh (no-

salt) water to remove all the salt from the works before drying the watch completely. Any salt left in the watch will combine

with moisture in the air to rust metal components of the movement, case etc.

- Winding any mechanical watch tight may break the mainspring. If you can avoid it do not wind the watch hard.

- When adjusting the hands of your watch, move them in a clockwise direction only. Counter-clockwise adjustments may damage

the movement.
