What should be paid attention to when using quartz watches?
Dec 22,2022
Quartz watches have become more and more popular in recent years. Its shape is ever-changing, and there is no need to worry about a lack of kinetic energy and stop turning like mechanical watches. Whether it is a men's quartz watch or a women's quartz watch, there are some problems that need to be understood in advance during the use process, so that the quartz watch can be used better in the future.
1. Non-professionals should not open the back cover to prevent damage.
The back cover is used to protect the movement, and also plays a waterproof role. If you are not a professional watch repairer, please do not open the back cover easily to avoid damage to the quartz watch.
2. Strap length adjustment
Small adjustments can be made to the position of the movable pin, and large adjustments require the disassembly and assembly of the strap grains. The above instructions are only for ordinary quartz watches and mechanical watches, excluding watches with unique movements.
3. Other matters needing attention in the use of quartz watches
(1) Battery When the second hand of the quartz watch jumps or stops every few seconds, and the battery is exhausted, the battery should be replaced in time to avoid damage to the movement caused by leaving the electroplating pool without electricity in the watch for a long time.
(2) Temperature The normal working environment temperature of a quartz watch is -5 degrees to 50 degrees. Do not place the watch in an environment with too high or too low a temperature (such as taking a sauna or soaking in a hot spring), otherwise, it will affect the accuracy of the watch and the battery life. service life.
(3) Waterproof and waterproof watches are waterproof daily, but they cannot be worn for swimming or diving. It is recommended not to wear them for bathing, so as to avoid short circuits or corrosion of the moving coil after entering the water, which will affect the travel time of the watch.
(4) Shock and vibration Watches using high-hardness materials (such as cemented carbide, ceramics, sapphire, etc.) have poor impact resistance and should avoid falling, collisions, and friction with high-hardness items.
(5) Magnetic watches should be kept away from TVs, magnets, speakers, and other objects with strong magnetic fields, so as to prevent the magnetic field from damaging the movement and affecting the accuracy of the watch.
(6) Chemicals Watches should avoid contact with various solvents (such as alcohol, gasoline), mercury, cosmetics, sprays, adhesives, detergents, paints, and other corrosive liquids or gases, so as to prevent the surface of the case and strap from being damaged. Erosion and discoloration, deterioration, or damage.
(7) The current quartz watch circuits all have variable pulse widths, and the power consumption of the circuit is directly related to the circuit pulse width output. The larger the pulse width, the greater the power consumption. Usually, when the watch changes the calendar or the vertical position When it is placed, the pulse output of the circuit to the stepping motor will become larger, so it must be placed horizontally when the watch is taken off at night.
(8) Any semiconductor silicon material is susceptible to light, especially sunlight, especially represented by quartz watches with liquid crystal display or liquid crystal display + pointer display, because the light may be projected onto the watch circuit, which will increase the circuit function. consumption, so avoid long-term exposure of the watch to strong sunlight.
(9) The humid environment is more harmful to quartz watches because the watch is not absolutely sealed. Once moisture or humid air enters the case, depending on the degree, it will seriously corrode the steel parts, or at least greatly Increase the circuit power consumption of the watch.
(10) For any watch with additional functions such as electric pointer adjustment, alarm, light, altitude, temperature, guide, etc., the number of times of use should be reduced as much as possible, especially the functions of alarm and light. A thousand times greater than the normal power consumption of a watch.
