If you have an automatic watch, and it hasn’t been worn for a while, it may stop working. If that happens, turn the crown clockwise a few times, then set the necessary time by pulling the winding stem out one notch. Generally speaking, to wind an automatic watch, it would be best to turn it 30 times the first time you wear it. For a self-winding watch, the watch should be slightly shaken as a way of getting it started. When it comes to a manual watch, it’s best that it be wound at the same time each day, preferably before wearing. By winding it at the same time, you ensure its accuracy and power reserve. As you wind the watch, remember, it’s best to stop winding if you feel even the slightest bit of resistance. The Watch Band Many luxury watches come with leather straps, which are selected to highlight the beauty of the luxury watch and therefore requires special care. The first thing to consider about leather straps is that they should not be exposed to water, as water can weaken the strap and cause it to tear. Another detriment to leather straps is when women wear perfume. Unfortunately, perfume tends to weaken and damage a watchband so be cautious when spraying the wrist with perfume. Best to put the perfume on before putting on the watch. Then give the perfume time to dry so that it won’t damage the strap. A note of caution: Even if you care for your leather strap very carefully, extreme weather conditions can affect the duration of the leather band. Reading Your Luxury Watch Manual A luxury watch requires regular maintenance, which may include cleaning and lubrication of the movement. To be sure your watch gives you years of enjoyment, it’s always best to read the manual that comes with your watch, as it offers recommendations for your particular luxury timepiece. Since every watch is unique, your watch may come with special instructions, so never generalize the care of your luxury watch. Instead use the instruction manual that tells you exactly what type of care it requires. Also, never open your timepiece, as it may expose the watchcase to moisture or dust, which can impact on the reliability of the watch. And finally, if your watch needs repair, by no means should you try to repair it yourself, but instead, be sure to have your luxury watch looked at by a reliable watch repair service.
