Do you know the seven essential knowledge points of mechanical watches?

Mechanical watch is extremely complex mechanical artifact, so wear mechanical watch is also very exquisite. So what are the essential knowledge points of mechanical table?

What mechanical table common sense even often wear a table do not know?

1, quick difference between quartz watch and mechanical watch

Want to quickly separate quartz watch and mechanical watch, there is a fastest way.

Watch the second hand move, second by second beat is quartz watch, continuous beat is mechanical watch, looks like gradually sliding over the dial. There are, of course, exceptions to the rule, such as Jaeger-Lecoult's spherical Physics Observatory True Second, a mechanical watch with a separate internal device for the second hand that moves in the same way as a quartz watch.

2, automatic mechanical table manual chain damage

It's a question many people are asking. Active list manual chain will not have any effect on the watch's interior, because the automatic chain part itself is a separate additional part.

But if it is already stalled automatic watch, re-wear must be manually on the chain. This is to allow the spring quickly into uniform release of power conditions (only by automatic chain may be insufficient power).

3, do the case of "fine steel" is what steel?

The so-called "fine steel" actually refers to a kind of high-precision steel, generally refers to 316L steel, which belongs to a kind of stainless steel, corrosion resistance, texture and sensitivity are very good. Also many people have heard of 904L steel, also known as Rolex steel, this material is better than 316L steel in various properties.

4, manual chain, how many turns to complete the string?

General watch power storage for 48 hours, the number of chain rings in 20 to 30 rings, but not necessarily. When the crown to almost, if you feel that the crown is a little tight, you can stop. Of course, the best thing to do is not to go to 100% each time.
