    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.

    Daily repair methods for water ingress in the watch:

    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.

    Law. 1. Place the vent - dry the watch with a dry paper towel and then place it in a cool and dry vent for a few hours, and do not place the watch directly in the sun or dry, which is to prevent water mist from flowing into the movement.

    Law. 2. Silicone drying - for the water inlet of the mechanical watch, you can use the granular substance of silica gel to absorb water, put the two in a closed container, and take it out after a few hours, and the water mist inside will be cleaned up; If it is a quartz point clock, you can take a few small pieces of calcium chloride, wrap them in gauze, and then open the electronic watch cover and seal it.

    Law. 3. Wipe oil and remove rust - method 1 and method 2 can only remove slight water mist, and for some more serious water ingress, these two work earlier, which is not enough for the rescue time of the movement, at this time it is best to find a professional watch repair center for maintenance, oil wiping treatment.

    The first method is to put the surface facing inwards and the bottom shell facing outward, and wear it on the wrist backwards, using the person's body temperature to remove the water mist, so that the fog in the surface can also be eliminated after a few hours. (This is only suitable if there is a very small amount of water mist in the meter).

    The second method: put the watch into the middle of the rice, the rice has the function of absorbing water, if the water mist in the watch is not very much, generally placed for 12 24 hours, the fog in the watch will disappear.

    The third method: first pull out the crown of the watch, then use toilet paper or flannel that is easy to absorb moisture, and then heat the watch with a light bulb, which can also remove the water mist. However, remember not to bake the watch close to the bulb or bake it directly, otherwise it will affect the inside of the movement and cause secondary damage.

    The fourth method: If you have silicone, you can use the good water absorption performance of silicone, put the silicone and the watch together in a closed container, and the water mist in the watch can be removed after a long time.

    If the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is flooded, you can go to Room 04-05, 11th Floor, South Block, Hong Kong Plaza, No. 283 Huaihai Middle Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai. The top priority of the watch is to send the watch to the watch 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 movement parts, long-term exposure to moisture can also cause discoloration, blistering and rust on the dial and hands of the watch. 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.

    At that time, most watches were not waterproof, and most Jaeger-LeCoultre watches were dust-proof. Whether or not a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is waterproof depends mainly on the tightness of the case structure, and perhaps the most important of the three proofproof properties of Jaeger-LeCoultre watches is waterproof. In the humid environment of the south, even if the watch does not enter the water, the long-term exposure of the watch movement to moisture will cause the mechanism of the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch to rust.

    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.

    Dust entering the dial of a watch is usually due to gradual penetration during long-term wear, if it is a certain length of dust such as hair or acrylic fibers that enters the dial of the watch, it is necessary to pay attention, such dust is very likely to cause the operation of the movement to stop. Do not easily open the back cover for cleaning, and take the watch to a professional after-sales center for cleaning in time.

    Daily maintenance of the dial:

    1. If the watch is flooded or damp for a long time, it is very easy to induce the discoloration of the dial, or the paint of the dial cover peels off, which is characterized by more occurrences at the edge of the dial. Therefore, when wearing a non-professional diver's watch, try not to get involved in rain, swimming, etc.

    2. For long-term collection of watches that are not used, if there are luminous hands, the discoloration of the dial is often at the corresponding position of the hour and minute hands of the watch.

    3. If the watch is placed or exposed to sunlight for a long time, all kinds of rays in the sunlight will make everything slowly change color, so try to expose the watch to the sun as little as possible.

    Answer the reason why the watch does not go: the main core gear is misaligned, the watch is magnetized, bumped, and the oil sludge is dried for a long time. The most common reason for the failure of the watch not going is the lack of power of the watch and the movement of the watch does not work.

    When the mechanical watch suddenly stops, the priority is to think about whether it is caused by lack of power. Hand-wound watches should be wound at the same time every day as much as possible so that the watch can operate with sufficient energy for the next 24 hours. When the quartz watch stops, it is necessary to consider whether it is caused by the battery failure, and go to the after-sales service to replace the battery.

    If the watch is used for a long time, then its wear and tear will be more serious, and the external maintenance of the watch will be easily damaged. It is necessary to regularly replace the watch you are wearing, and it is necessary to maintain the watch regularly, for the service life of your watch, it is better to maintain it regularly.
