Automatic mechanical watch should be maintained once

The maintenance cycle of automatic mechanical watches does not have a strict standard, but in general, it is more appropriate to carry out maintenance every 3 to 5 years. This cycle is mainly based on the following considerations:

The mechanical parts inside the mechanical watch will have certain wear during operation, especially the gear, spring and other parts. Regular maintenance can check and replace worn parts to ensure the normal operation of the watch.

Lubricating oil is the key to ensure the normal operation of mechanical watches. Over time, lubricating oil will gradually be consumed and may deteriorate, resulting in increased friction between mechanical components, affecting the accuracy and life of the watch. Regular maintenance can reapply the right amount of lubricating oil to reduce friction and wear.

For automatic mechanical watches with waterproof function, regular maintenance can also detect whether its waterproof performance is good. If the waterproof ring is aging or damaged, it should be replaced in time to ensure the waterproof effect of the watch.

The appearance of the watch also needs regular cleaning and maintenance. Parts such as the case and strap may become contaminated with dirt or scratches due to daily wear. Regular maintenance can restore the original luster and beauty of the watch.

It is worth noting that the maintenance cycle is not static, it can also be affected by the following factors:

Different brands and models of fully automatic mechanical watches have differences in design and manufacturing, so their maintenance cycles may also be different. Some high-end brands of watches due to the use of more exquisite craftsmanship and materials, the maintenance cycle may be longer. If the watch is often in a harsh use environment (such as high temperature, humidity, strong magnetic field, etc.), or often carries out intense exercise and other high-intensity use, then its maintenance cycle may be shortened accordingly.

In addition, even if the watch has no obvious problems during the maintenance cycle, it is recommended that professional testing and maintenance be carried out regularly. This helps to discover potential problems in time and take appropriate measures to solve them, thereby extending the service life of the watch and maintaining its good operating condition.

Automatic mechanical watches every 3 to 5 years for maintenance is a more appropriate cycle, but the specific need to be determined according to the brand of the watch, model, use of the environment and conditions and other factors.
