Proper watch storage

watches

Here we have to go back to the analogy with cars. With storage, in general, it is also similar. The car, of course, is better to keep in a garage, preferably in a warm one. But there is a difference: if the car more or less calmly withstands a parking in the open air, even in the rain and snow, but it does not suit the watches. And to store the wristwatch at home you have to avoid risks such as dirt, dust, liquids (for example, when you are doing home repairs or cooking something in the kitchen), falls, bumps, etc.

In order to store your watches, if you don’t wear them for a while and don’t have the need to look at them from time to time, you can use a regular box, but of course it is better to use a special case. These cases are both properly adjusted for storing watches and, in addition, beautiful. And for storing watches with automatic winders, there are special cases, which not only store the watches, but wind them as well. Such watch winders, also called time-winders, work from batteries and/or mains, they are designed for one, two, four, etc. watches (which is not superfluous if you have a whole collection), offer a choice of different automatic modes, are decorated with wood, leather, modern materials.

Swiss Watch Service

Sometimes one asks: but how to take care of this particular Swiss watch? Are there any specifics that distinguish their maintenance from that of Japanese, German and all other watches? We answer: there are no fundamental differences and there cannot be. Another thing is that the watches marked Swiss made, as a rule, are a matter of much pride for their owner as they are almost always of high quality and unequivocally testify in favor of the status of the owner of such a watch. And it is not very nice to have your favorite Swiss watches that suddenly start to malfunction or stop altogether, or lose their looks because of scratches on the bracelet and case due to improper cleaning, or because they are on a band that is worn, scuffed, or dirty. That’s why everything we’ve recommended to you above is worth following for a Swiss watch as strictly as possible.
