How do you solve the problem of water in the watch?
January 13, 2022If the watch water is best sent to the watch shop for inspection, water in the watch situation to do drying, washing oil and drip oil treatment. Unable to watch the first time to the repair shop, you can do a simple emergency treatment. Let me introduce some methods to you.
Method 1. If the watch is soaked in water, wrap the watch tightly with several layers of toilet paper or moisture-absorbing flannel, place it about 15 cm near a 40-watt light bulb, and bake for about 30 minutes until the water vapor in the watch evaporates. When you have finished. Never bake the dial of the watch directly near the fire to avoid heat and deformation of the dial.
Method 2: Put the dial inward and the bottom case outward, and put it on your wrist. The water vapor will be eliminated after two hours. If the watch is seriously exposed to water, it is best to immediately send it to the watch shop to wipe the oil and remove the moisture from the movement to avoid rusting of internal parts.
Method 3: Use granular silica gel and the watch that has accumulated water into a closed container. After a few hours, take out the watch and the accumulated water will disappear. This method is simple to operate and has no damage to the accuracy and life of the watch. The silica gel that has absorbed water many times can be dried at 120°C for several hours, its water absorption capacity not only can be regenerated, but also can be used repeatedly.
But the above method is only used in the water of watch symptoms are mild, it is recommended to use the above method to solve. Even if the watch is temporarily processed, finally, it is best to enter the repair shop in the near future to check and maintain, so as not to cause damage to the movement parts due to delay.
