In such a case, have the watch overhauled. Do not leave the watchin a place where it will be subjectedto strong magnetism(for example, near television sets, loudspeakers or magnetic necklaces) electricity. or static Do not leave the watch where there arestrong vibrations. Do not leave the watch in dusty places. Do not expose the watch to chemical substances or gases. (Ex.:Organic solvents such as benzine and thinner, gasoline, nail polish, sprays,cosmetic detergents, adhesives, mercury, and iodine antiseptic solution.) Do not leave the watch in close contact with hot spring water.

Mechanical watches tendhigh to lose temperaturestime at while they tend to gain timeat low temperatures. In order to improve accuracy, it is important to regularly supply energy to thebalance that controls the speed ofthe gears. The driving force of the mainspringthat powers mechanical watches varies between when it is fully woundimmediately and before itis unwound. As the mainspring unwinds, the force weakens. Relatively steady accuracy can be obtained bywearing the watch on the wristfrequently for the self-winding type and winding upthe mainspring fullyat a fixed everyday time to move it regularly for the wind-up mechanical type. When affected by external strong magnetism, a mechanical watchtime may loss/gain temporarily. The parts of the watch may become magnetized dependingthe on extent of the effect. In such a case, consult the retailer from whomwas the purchased watch since the watch requires repair, including demagnetizing.
