November 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Finally, the cutting edge technology is allowing us to do things, that were a distant dream even a few years, ago. Before you let your thought wander, let me tell you we are talking with respect to watches. Even until a few years back watches meant a one-time investment, they used to come in few pre-designed shapes and looks, and there was hardly anyway in which you could customize your watch, except of course for the straps.

Baume & Mercier Gold Dial Until a few years, back a particular watch could have only a particular dial, as the movement of the watch, depended on the size and shape of the dial. However the story has changed ever since the augment of the new technology, which has actually miniaturized the watch movement mechanism to such an extant, that now they can be work on wider range of dials. This gives you the opportunity to customize your watch, and go for a dial of your own choice.

Baume & Mercier Gold Dial Baume & Mercier Gold Dial is one of the best of its kind. There are several reasons behind this claim though. To start of, this part is completely genuine and authentic, with the company’s name engraved. It is a gold dial, so I guess trying into to describe its elegance, will be nothing but a, futile effort, as no words will be enough to express its beauty. There are gold batons embedded in the dial to mark the hours.

The part, unlike many available in the market is brand new and crop-free; it has never been used before. The gold dial is 16 mm wide and 19 mm long to be exact.

This dial is aimed for those of you who have an aesthetic sense of fashion, as this is certainly going to make your watch look elegant and absolutely priceless.

Etic Contact Cleaning Fluid Well, many of us think making a one-time investment to buy an expensive watch, and changing the batteries once in two years is enough to ensure ourselves of reading the right time at any given time. However, sadly it is not so. No matter how much we think of a watch as a simple device, which tells us time, it is definitely more complex a machine in reality. Moreover it demands, a certain amount of our time and effort, for maintaining it.

Yes if we want to get the most life out of a single watch then we have to maintain it from time to time, in absence if which a watch stops working within a few years of its purchase, if not a few months.

The most important of all the other maintenance jobs, is to clean the main core of the watch, especially in case of electronic watches. Often it happens, that due to regular use, despite the watch being waterproof, some sweat and mineral salts contained in it, do seep inside and come in contact with the core watch circuit. This accounts for improper connections within the watch and consequents in its malfunction. It also happens due to leakages from faulty batteries, which contain harmful acids and minerals, capable of causing corrosion.

Elma Clean 85 Ultrasonic FluidSwiss made Etic Contact Cleaning Fluid is a cleaning fluid, which takes care of the entire above stated problem and ensures the proper functioning of the watch. This fluid has such compounds in it, which dissolves the mineral salts, which mainly is responsible for any misconnections in the watch circuit.

It also has the property to remove corrosion, and to prevent it from happening again. The best thing about this solution is that it evaporates in a very short time, so that none of it is left inside your watch, once you are done with the cleaning. There are also many other cleaning oils, which are meant for more specific actions.

Batteries – The powerhouse inside a watch

November 25th, 2008 · No Comments

The mechanism of a watch makes each responsible action independent of each other. No application can emerge and proclaim monopoly power over the other applications. A watch is incomplete and undone without each and every spring and lever. Surprisingly none of such minute applications escape the watchful and accurate eyes of a typical watchmaker. 

Over the years there have been a number of prolific changes in a watch. Watches had become smaller in stature and even changed times. Gone are the days of winding watches. These watches had to be tuned on a daily basis to maintain the rhythm of the watch. A slight failure on your part to operate on the crown could rob the watch of its life. Winding proved to be a menacing feature, if considered daily. Thus battery operated watches intruded the market and summoned absolute plunder for the winding watches. The battery operated watches are more efficient and more importantly you need not touch the happy crown, not for activating the watch. A good watch is sure to go on and on as an obedient child for quite a long period of time.
