Old friends may already know how to buy a watch

Every man should have a good table! Since it is a good table, we must be careful when buying. Old friends may already know how to buy a watch, and today we focus on new friends to introduce!1, merits and demerits: quartz, mechanical hard to competeNormally, mechanical watches are more expensive than quartz watches, but this does not mean that mechanical watches must be better than quartz Cartier love bracelet replica watches.Quartz watches and mechanical watches the main difference is the use of which energy source to drive the movement of the watch core. The mechanical watch has a helix. When people give the watch a chord, the helix is also tightened at the same time. When the helix is released, it begins to drive the watch core to move. Quartz watch is a battery as a source of energy. The battery outputs power to the electronic blocks on the watch and on the motor. Every second electronic block will output a pulse wave to the motor, driven by the motor to run the needle.Therefore, from the timing point of view, quartz watches than mechanical watches to be more accurate. Mechanical watches due to the helix speed is not consistent, timing accuracy will decline, and its accuracy will be affected by temperature, location and parts wear and other factors. So the general mechanical watch a day 15 to 30 seconds error is more normal, the minimum error also has 4 to 5 seconds. But the quartz watch is not the same, quartz crystal can provide the most stable pulse wave, so you can guarantee the highest accuracy. Under normal circumstances, the quartz watch monthly error between 15 to 25 seconds, the smallest error of only 5 seconds a year.The reason why the mechanical watch is more expensive than the quartz watch, this is because the mechanical watch in the production process requires accurate manual adjustment school, and quartz watches are generally assembled in the automatic production line.In addition, it is generally believed that the operating life of mechanical watches longer than quartz watches. But the fact may not always, because the quartz watch inside all the running parts and mechanical watches are the same. Although the life of electronic components has not been fully tested, but may also have the same life. Therefore, consumers can fully believe that a good quartz watch can provide the same long as the mechanical watch service period.However, quartz watches and mechanical watches also have their own advantages and disadvantages. The biggest advantage of quartz watches is the timing of high precision, easy to wear, and easy to make a very thin very small, strong sense of fashion. While the watch surface of the mechanical watch more craft, but the case is generally relatively large thickness. If you map convenience, and the timing accuracy requirements, then you should choose a quartz watch. If it is a small special thin quartz watch, you have to consider whether the battery is convenient, because the battery is also the more thin the more expensive.2, pick material: case to vary from person to personThe material of the watch case is K gold, gold-plated, titanium, stainless steel, semi-steel chrome, alloy shell and so on. K gold case only brand-name high-end table used, the price is generally more than tens of thousands of dollars; and semi-steel (only the watch cover is stainless steel) chrome a class are low-grade table, the case is easy to be corroded. Gold-plated case is beautiful, but not a certain Cartier love ring replica gold-plated thickness (including strap) is also easy to get rid of. If you want to choose gold-plated table, the coating thickness of the best in more than 10 microns. Titanium table is more durable wear, but the color is not good-looking. Now more popular is the two-color case strap (gold or gold-plated and stainless steel), they are more beautiful and durable. Gold-plated table than the steel of the table expensive, leather strap watch than the same section of the watch strap a lot cheaper.People who love sweating or those who love sports, outdoor workers, people who have been exposed to chemical acid-base substances for long periods of time (such as medical workers) should wear stainless steel shells. Mercury-containing chemicals have a great deal of damage to K gold and gold plating, which will discolor gold. Copper plating of the table head, case and strap inside the side is very easy to sweat corrosion, so that the coating off. Steel table with a hollow core and the core of the points, the lower part of the empty core band is a low-grade table with solid core strap more durable.Strap between the pinning and strap buckle is wearing the watch when the most vulnerable to the problem, the purchase of watches must be carefully checked. Some buckle long-term opening and closing, easy to problems such as “butterfly” buckle, etc., and ** straps are easy to break, these should also be considered before buying watches.3, listen to the sound of the table?As the saying goes, “Listen Listen, listen to the gongs and drums.” Early experience of the repair table master will always put the watch on the ear, shaking his head to change the position, listen to the watch when the sound changes to guess the watch’s good and bad, this is all experience and effort. Well-trained watch master can hear the balance of the balance wheel watch, and even can hear is not “rough horse table.”The most simple to understand the meaning of listening to the watch, in fact, is to watch the watch after the change in position, the sound changes when walking. And the failure or parts of the damaged watch, with the location of the change, the sound of walking time will be significantly changed. Some will happen cyclical changes, the sound for a while soon as small. Because of this, listen to the watch can only detect the watch is faulty, and can not fully represent the quality of the watch.But for the average person, listen to the watch needs experience, it is best to do comparison, that is, listen more practice, different size of the watch size of the watch is not the same sound. Generally speaking, male watch sound to be bigger, female table is much smaller. As for the location of the table, to choose the usual place to wear – that is flat, flat, including “dial surface and dial surface.” In addition, there are three elevation positions: table under the table to the left, the table on a total of five positions.4, maintenance: carefully consideredThe life of the watch is related to the proper use and maintenance of the watch by the wearer, such as wearing a watch bath, the appearance of the watch dirty, the length of the strap, the use of bad environment, etc., are likely to lead to damage to the watch, shorten the service life.In the high-end watches every two to three years should be the appropriate maintenance, replacement of waterproof components, testing travel performance and movement power consumption, cleaning movement and maintenance of appearance, such maintenance services will effectively extend the use of watches time.Of course, the more expensive watch the maintenance costs are higher, such as ROLEX watch oil prices are generally more than 2,000 yuan. As well as strap, glass and other vulnerable parts, if it is shaped case may not be easily assigned to the future. Therefore, the purchase of watches also consider the watch after-sales service and accessories supply problems, in general, the use of large road cargo movement such as ETA movement watch and large brand watches are not big problems.5, the election: Switzerland is not necessarily the cheapest to buyEarly watches were very expensive, except for timing, were mainly used to show off their status and status. To 1920, worn on the wrist has been popular on the table, after a few decades, the Swiss watch industry has been ranked the world’s leading position. Many manufacturers are committed to the pocket watch, pocket the combination of functions, increase the calendar, automatic Cartier nail bracelet replica winding, timer and other functions, and to miniaturization, so that the popularity of watches.In 1970, the quartz technology began to dominate the watch industry, but the Swiss company launched the antique table series also swept the world, to the late 80s of last century, the Swiss company began to produce a variety of luxury mechanical watches, this tendency was further developed, Complex winding or automatic mechanical watches are increasingly favored. Today, Switzerland has the world watch ** brand in the vast majority of Switzerland can be called “watch the emperor.”But from the purchase of watches, buying in Switzerland is not necessarily the cheapest. In Switzerland, once a purchase of more than 300 Swiss francs, Chinese tourists can enjoy about 7.6% of the tax rebate. But this tax rebate rate is not the highest, Chinese tourists in other European countries, such as France can enjoy 12% of the tax rebate. If you buy watches in the United States need to increase taxes, but the general pricing will be relatively low. So, in the United States airport duty-free shop purchase watch is also a good choice.In addition, for the mainland consumers, in Hong Kong to buy watches is also a good choice. In general, the price of Hong Kong and the Mainland watches, roughly a difference of 15% to 25%, if taking into account the exchange rate difference, the actual difference of about 20% to 30%. And the more expensive the watch, the lower the price you buy in Hong Kong.
