What should I do if there is moisture on my Vacheron Constantin watch?

When there is water vapor in the watch, it is best not to disassemble the watch by yourself, so as not to cause damage to the watch movement, and the gains outweigh the losses. You can first pull out the watch handle completely, if the water is not serious, then you can use several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture to wrap the watch tightly, and bake it at a distance of 15 cm from a 40-watt light bulb for about 30 minutes, you can eliminate water vapor, do not bake the watch directly near the fire, so as not to deform the watch from heat. Or dry it with a hair dryer, not too hot, and a mild wind until you can't see the moisture on the glass; You can also use silica gel granular desiccant to put the watch with water vapor in a closed box, and after a few hours, you can take out the watch, this method can be repeated, so that the water vapor of the watch can be removed more effectively.

If the watch does not have a lot of water vapor, you can wear the watch face inward and the bottom case outward, and wear it on the wrist, and the water vapor can be eliminated after two hours.

However, if the water ingress is serious, it is best to send it to a watch repair shop to eliminate the water vapor in the watch.

If you find that the watch is flooded, you can use several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture to wrap the watch tightly, put it about 15 cm near a 40-watt light bulb, and bake for about 40 minutes, and the water vapor in the watch can be eliminated. Do not bake the watch directly near the heat, so as not to deform the glass by heating. Because although there is no moisture on the dial, there may still be water in the movement, and the movement will rust and cause damage to the movement after a long time.

After the watch is flooded, it is recommended to find a professional repair outlet as soon as possible for the master to check and deal with it, which can reduce your unnecessary losses.

Room 2513, 25th Floor, Diwang Building (Shun Hing Plaza), No. 5002 Shennan East Road, Luohu District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province] will answer for you.

1 .When the watch is damp, press it against the watch with dry cotton and bake it with a 40-watt bulb for 5 minutes, and all the moisture on the watch will evaporate.

2 .Add some small calcium chloride and wrap it in gauze. Then, open the lid of the electronic meter and seal the wrapped calcium chloride in a plastic bag or glass bottle with no air leakage along with the electronic meter. Generally, the tide will ebb for about 3 hours, and the electronic watch will return to normal.

3 .For wet radar watches, the moisture absorption time can be appropriately extended.

The watch was close to moisture and did not shake the water vigorously. The moisture in the watch can easily penetrate the motherboard, so the watch cannot be removed for inspection. If you can't solve the problem, it is recommended to take it to a regular repair shop for repair.

When the water ingress in the watch is severe, repairing the watch is not only to repair the water ingress in the watch, but also to repair the parts in the watch. The parts inside the mechanical watch must be refueled. Because water is iron oxide, if you add a lot of water to the watch, the parts inside the watch will be oxidized, so it is necessary to maintain the water entering the watch, not just remove the water.

When you refuel the meter parts in your hand, open the back cover to remove the parts in the table, refuel the parts in each table again, and finally assemble these parts is a technical job, remove the other party's watch parts, and assemble people who know it.

If you do not know how to disassemble and assemble the parts of the watch, it is recommended to take the watch to a repair shop and let a professional repairer operate it.

In addition to movement parts, long-term exposure to moisture can also cause discoloration, blistering and rust on the dial and hands of the watch. I would like to remind you that if it is a watch with repeated water ingress, you need to pay extra attention when wearing it. At that time, most watches were not waterproof, and most watches were dustproof.

Whether the watch is waterproof or not mainly depends on the tightness of the case structure, and perhaps the most important of the watch's three proof performance is the waterproof performance. In the humid environment in the south, even if the watch does not enter the water, the watch parts will rust due to the long-term contact of the watch movement with moisture.

The watch belongs to precision machinery, whether the water into the watch has an impact on the watch accessories, this is not sure, it depends on whether the water into the watch is very serious, and how the waterproof of the watch is. If it is only the watch of the watch that is fogged, it is estimated that the water ingress of the watch is not serious. If it causes the watch to slow down, not to go or other problems, it is estimated that it will have an impact on the watch accessories.

Therefore, it is recommended to go to a professional watch repair center for testing, and the general inspection is free.

Generally speaking, there are only three places where water can enter the watch movement: the handle (handle), the watch mask and the back cover. The waterproof device is also installed in these three places: add a rubber ring to the shank, add a rubber ring on the threaded edge of the back cover of the sealing ring, shank and other parts, and make the surface tight.

Water and fog into the watch has the greatest impact on the watch movement, and it should be dealt with in time to prolong the service life of the watch. If not treated in time, the residual moisture will easily cause the internal movement to oxidize and rust, resulting in inaccurate watch timekeeping and watch failure.

If the watch is seriously flooded, please send it to the repair center immediately for treatment, otherwise it will cause many metal parts inside the movement to oxidize and rust due to water vapor, causing greater damage.

If water gets into your watch, you can put a granular substance called silicone with your watch in a meter-closed container, and after a few hours, you can take out your watch and the water will disappear. This method is simple, convenient and economical, and does not harm the accuracy and longevity of the watch. In addition, the silica gel that has absorbed water many times can be dried at 120 degrees for several hours, and the water absorption capacity is renewable, and it can be used again and again.

Method 2: If the mechanical watch is soaked in water, you can use several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture to wrap the watch tightly, put it at about 15 cm near the 40-watt light bulb, bake for about 30 minutes, and the water vapor in the table can be eliminated. Do not bake the watch close to the fire, so as not to deform the watch by heat.

If there is water in the watch, you still have to go to the repair shop to wipe the oil and maintain it to prevent the parts inside from rusting.

1. Dry the granules with silica gel. If water enters the case, you can use a granular substance called silicone to put the watch in an airtight container with the waterlogged watch, and after a few hours, remove the watch and the water will disappear. This method is simple and economical, and there is no damage to the accuracy and longevity of the watch.

The silica gel that has been absorbed many times can be dried at 120 degrees for several hours, and the water absorption capacity is renewable, and it can be used again and again.

2. Bake with a light bulb. If the water ingress is not serious, but there is a layer of fog in the surface glass, then you can use several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture to wrap the watch tightly, and bake it at a distance of 15 cm from a 40-watt light bulb for about 30 minutes to eliminate the moisture. Do not bake the watch mask directly close to the fire, so as not to deform the watch by heating.

3. Wear the watch backwards. You can also put the mask facing inwards and the bottom shell facing outward, and wear it on the wrist backwards, and the moisture can be eliminated after two hours. If the water ingress is severe. (It is not recommended to use the above methods to deal with it, it is recommended to go to the after-sales center for maintenance).

Many people don't pay attention to the problem of water ingress in the watch, and some problems will occur in the watch over time

First: Try wearing the watch backwards. Put the watch face inwards and the bottom case outward, put it on your wrist, and then send it to the repair center for processing, otherwise many metal parts inside the movement will oxidize and rust due to water vapor, causing more serious losses.

Second: Use silica gel to dry the granules. In the event of water ingress in the case, a granular substance called silicone can be used to place the watch in an airtight container with the water that has accumulated and remove the watch after a few hours.

Third: Dry with a hair dryer, the temperature is not too high, and the wind is mild until the moisture on the glass is not visible.

Fourth: After the watch is put into water, put it in rice, and after 24 hours, the water vapor is adsorbed.

None of these methods can guarantee that the moisture in the watch has been removed. If there is residual moisture and moisture in the watch, then the movement is very likely to be affected, which will affect the operation of the whole watch, and the later maintenance cost will be higher.

What should I do if my watch gets water?

1. If the watch is soaked in water, you can wrap the watch tightly with several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture, put it at about 15 cm near a 40-watt light bulb, and bake it for about 30 minutes, and the water vapor in the watch can be eliminated.

2. Put it in a rice jar and bury it deep in the dried rice for a period of time, if it is fast, you can see obvious results in one night.

3. You can use a granular substance called silica gel to put it into a closed container with the watch that has accumulated water, and after a few hours, take out the watch, and the water will disappear.

4. Take a hair dryer to dry, and then apply a layer of transparent nail polish on it to avoid impurities and prevent rust.

5. If there is water vapor in the watch, you can wear the watch face inward and the bottom shell outward, and wear it on the wrist to eliminate the water vapor in two hours. If there is too much water in the watch, the case must be opened and scrubbed. If you are not sure to deal with it yourself, you should send it for repair in time.

(1) There is fogging in the watch glass, and there may be some times and sometimes not, especially when the temperature difference is large;

2) There are water droplets condensed in the watch glass;

3) A large number of water droplets can be seen on the glass and dial of the watch;

If you find that the watch is flooded, it is imperative to send the watch to the watch repair shop for drying as soon as possible, and if the water is serious, it is necessary to do oil washing. If you don't do it in time, then the water will make the steel parts in the watch movement embroidery, and the tiny clock parts usually need to be replaced once they rust, and the repair cost in the future will be very large, you must know that the damage to the watch by water is "catastrophic". In addition to the movement parts, long-term contact with water vapor will also cause discoloration, blistering and rust of the watch dial and watch hands.

Here, I would like to remind you that if it is a watch with repeated water ingress, you need to pay extra attention when wearing it.

Water in the watch is a more serious thing, especially some high-end mechanical watches, if not repaired in time, then the water will make the steel parts in the watch movement appear embroidery, tiny clock parts usually need to be replaced once rusty, the future repair cost will be very large, to know that the damage to the watch is "catastrophic". In addition to movement parts, long-term exposure to moisture can also cause discoloration, blistering and rust on the dial and hands of the watch.

If the watch is not accurate because of factors such as falling and collision, but the time is inaccurate naturally, it may be that the watch is magnetized. The maintenance method for the watch is very simple, just find an unmagnetized iron ring, put the watch in the ring, slowly wear it around, and after a while, the watch will be demagnetized and restored.

Water ingress into the watch will cause damage to the watch movement, and if it is not treated in time, it will corrode the watch movement, causing the watch to run inaccurately or even not go. The stagnant water in the watch case should be removed in time, and then the watch should be sent to a professional watch repair center for oil washing and maintenance. Prevent serious damage to the watch caused by excessive time.

The solution to the water in the watch and the fog on the mirror:

Wrap the watch tightly with several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture, and bake it under the light bulb for about 30 minutes to eliminate the water mist inside, but do not put it close to the light bulb or bake it directly, so as not to cause the surface to be deformed by heating.

Wear the surface inwards and the bottom case outwards on your wrist to remove the mist from the surface after a few hours.

If you have silicone, you can put the silicone and the watch in water into a closed container, and after a few hours, take the watch out again, and the water mist in the watch will disappear.

If the water ingress of the watch is serious, it is best to send it to a watch shop to wipe the oil and eliminate the water in the watch to avoid rust on the parts of the watch.

1.If there is only fog in the glass, you can wrap the table tightly with several layers of toilet paper or flannel cloth that is easy to absorb moisture, and bake it at a distance of 15 cm from a 40-watt light bulb for about 30 minutes to eliminate moisture.

2.Do not bake the watch directly near the heat, so as not to deform the watch by heating.

3.You can also put the mask facing inwards and the bottom shell facing outward, and wear it on the wrist backwards, and the water vapor can be eliminated after two hours.

4.If the water ingress is serious, it should be sent to the watch shop immediately to wipe the oil to remove the moisture from the movement.

The maintenance address is located in Room 1003, 10th Floor, Hongyi International Plaza, No. 299 Nanjing East Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai.

The faster the water is treated, the better. Otherwise, water will soak into the movement and the movement will rust. When the movement rusts, the short-circuited rust layer on the surface will continue to absorb moisture, accelerating rust formation.

If it is too late and the internal parts are damaged, more maintenance costs will be required. When the watch is heavily immersed in water, it is recommended to wash the movement in the official after-sales service to avoid the watch being discarded due to rust. If water ingress is severe, do not consider disposing of it yourself.

Immediately send to the official after-sales service to wipe the oil, remove the moisture of the movement, avoid rust of the parts, and the official after-sales service professional technicians will serve you with all their might! It's still the same old saying. Please do not delay in repairing your watch and replacing it with a replacement watch.

How to deal with repeated fogging of the watch.

Put your hands together and put the watch between your hands, and then take it out after about 10 seconds to see if there is any fog, if there is a problem, then congratulations you are not a waterproof rubber ring, if there is a problem with the waterproof rubber ring, the fog will be fast and fast, you can lock the fog inside the table to indicate that there is no problem with the waterproof rubber ring. If this is the case, pull the crown to 2 when it is the time setting, attach desiccant to the front and back of the dial, wrap 2 3 circles with tissue paper and place it at a position of about 5 cm of the lamp for baking. If the fog cannot be removed by the above methods, then you can only open the case back, take out the movement, heat it slightly with a hair dryer to remove the moisture, and put it back to check whether the seal of the handle and the bottom cover is intact to prevent the watch from entering.

Generally speaking, water ingress into the watch is caused by improper use, and this situation is generally not covered by the warranty. If there is a problem with the quality of the watch, then it should be replaced in time. When the after-sales maintenance, there will still be repeated fogging, then you can ask for a return.

No matter how good the waterproof performance of the watch is, if it is not maintained for a long time, it may enter the water, so it is necessary to regularly ensure and test the waterproof performance. If there is a repeated fogging phenomenon, do not take it seriously, should be dealt with in time, if you can't deal with it, you should also send it to a professional repair shop for processing. This is because long-term moisture will cause the movement to rust and affect the accuracy.
