Nowadays, watches have become a synonym for status, wealth and taste. Even if you are not crazy about watches, they are extremely adorable sometimes and you cannot help glancing at them from time to time. Due to the improved craftsmanship on watchmaking, more and more splendid watches have emerged to flatter watch enthusiasts. And then the most important issue definitely comes to the maintenance of watches. Here are some tips to teach you how to take care of watches properly.

Tip 1

The most significant thing is to make sure whether the timepiece is waterproof or not. Generally, the instruction is engraved on the back of the case, so you should read it when you purchase a new watch. If you want to dive with a watch, it is advisable to wear a professional diving watch.

Tip 2

It is forbidden to expose the watch to a fast change in temperature. It means that you should not wear a watch to sauna and then have a shower, even if it is a water resistant timepiece. If you forget to take off the water and just jump into the swimming pool, simply leave it to dry. Do remember that it is totally wrong to open the case; otherwise, the watch will not be a water resistant one. In fact, the principal of water resistance is based on the pressure inside the case. Once the case is opened, the water resistance guarantee will not apply anymore.

Tip 3

Don’t knock the watch or make it involved into outside impacts. That is because bumps could damage the inner working system badly and also scratch the surface of the watch. Thankfully, there are some watches specially designed for those sports activities, so it is not necessary to worry about the scratches.

Tip 4

You’d better examine the straps or bracelets on a regular basis. Try to make sure that they are not loose or worn. Last but not least, cleaning is quite necessary. If you get a water resistant watch, you could clean it with warm water directly and then use a piece of soft cloth to dry the watch.

Patek Philippe firstly built their factory in 1839. The average retail price of their watches extends from 13, 000 dollars to 20, 000 dollars. They are the only truly independent watchmaker in Switzerland that they make watches all on their own from the beginning to the end. And it needs 10 years to train a Patek Philippe watchmaker.

Not long ago, Patek Philippe renewed the records of world auctions as an antique watch once again. It was a customized watch for a banker of United States in 1933. The auction price of this watch was up to 11, 000, 000 dollars. This watch has 24 kinds of functions, which cost 3 years’ time to design and another 5 years’ time to make. It costs 8 years to produce a watch. What kind of high quality consciousness it is! With this strong consciousness, the company produced only 0. 6 million watches in total since its establishment more than a century and a half ago.

What commendable is that Patek Philippe never made one inferior watch because of their popular market. There is a secret workshop in their factory. In this workshop, they have maintained a tradition over a hundred years. That is they produce only one watch by hand-made each year. The price of this watch is about RMB 30 million. If any one who wants to buy this watch, he has to wait 8 to 10 years at least. Thus, how can such products would decline in value? High quality and value really need high cost.

We are impossible to deny that women are creatures born with the sensibility of beauty, and with greater wealth and higher social place we have earned, the fashion luxuries become the preferred choice to make up for our painstaking working. Also with the constantly improved fashion sense, we have got our own distinctive measurement of fashions. We love all stylish pieces from necklaces, dangly earrings, ruby rings and delicate bracelets and bangles. However, if you ever cared about the important chic parties gathering fashion designers and hot stars all together, you would find that all the accessories I have mentioned above are arrayed frequently, instead, watches are usually overlooked.

In fact, ever since the Swatch died down years ago, the enthusiasm for watch has been repressed and the fashion watch press doesn’t show its face frequently. What a pity, because watch is the most stylish and valuable jewelry to show a person’s taste and individuality.

And if you are a gentleman who is tired of the exaggerating and vulgar approach of presenting a villa or a superbly fine car to buy an elegant lady’s heart, why not transfer your attention to these small timepieces. We have read too much press news about a super star ending her single life because of the big luxurious presents like villas and cars. Thus, accepting these over precious gifts may make ladies risk being a woman who stresses material too much instead of true feelings. However, a valuable and fashion watch will be an appropriate choice to show your loyalty and sincerity to a lady.

To be a gentleman, you should be neither too stingy or too over boasting, and buy her a branded watch will perfectly show your value for life and love. Don’t forget to choose a right and suitable watch to embellish your lady’s beauty. Your appreciation and apprehension for these branded watches can represent your personal taste, individuality and sense of beauty very much. And ladies do attach high importance to these aspects.
