手表走时慢就是坏了吗？

First of all, we must understand that the calculation of the watch error is cumulative, let's say a day slow 20 seconds or so, of course, a few days down can not see what to natural will not adjust the moment, half a month is 5 minutes, a month is 10 minutes. This gives many people a kind of slower and slower illusion. Error standard is: ± 30 seconds / day.

Back on topic, let's take a look at the reasons why mechanical watches are slow:

1. Lack of motivation

General full self-supporting watch should be worn on the hand more than 8 hours a day to make up the amount of clockwork, the wearer's lack of movement, can not give the clockwork to supplement the energy to meet, resulting in the watch go slow and perhaps steal stop.

2、Movement stained, poor smooth, too much sludge

The watch is used for a long time or the shell seal is bad and other reasons to form the internal staining of the movement, poor smoothing, and then lead to the watch slower and slower. So most of the watches can recover normal time after maintenance.

3. Cold weather walks slowly

Influenced by the temperature of the smooth oil condensation caused by the treatment is very simple, that is, all cleaned and replaced with a smooth oil does not condense.

4、Watch stops and starts causing it to go slower and slower.

When the watch presents the situation of touching and falling, it is likely to form the loosening of the internal parts to present the phenomenon of stealing and stopping and even stop walking. There is also the pendulum axis axis tenon mild bending, rolling movement, balance wheel, escapement fork and wheel system can roll, but the balance wheel rolling a very short time to stop.

I feel that I said a little complicated, you may not understand, then I briefly summarize, this kind of problem occurs mostly in the escapement system, mainly parts have minor damage, deformation, and capillary filament blocking. Failure of the hairspring and slippage of the parts are also causes of slow and fast.

5. Incoming water is not thoroughly treated

Some people based on the methods taught online to deal with their own, such as: sun, hair dryer blowing, baking, the watch is worn backwards, with the desiccant put together and so on. After trying to think that it is good, it is a big mistake. These recipes are the wrong approach, and can not deal with the actual problem (inside the movement you can not see the place is still water), but also on the watch to form damage.

And do not advocate personal treatment, not every watch lover is a watch repair master. The way to deal with the water in the watch is to clean and maintain it completely, otherwise the metal parts of the movement will gradually rust and corrode naturally, and irreversible.

6. Watches subjected to magnetism

Watch time is greatly affected by the magnetic field, mechanical watches go slow, perhaps due to long time contact with electronic equipment magnetized. After the watch is magnetized, the watch may stop, may be fast, may be slow. This time need to demagnetize can be dealt with.

The above points we are not difficult to find, the general condition of slow walking is not the watch is bad, and we wear the environment is closely related. First of all, we have to ensure that the amount of movement to meet, wear more than 8 hours a day. If not, advocate to the professional watch maintenance test, accurate guidance watch slow causes and then only to deal with.
