What should you watch out for when buying a mechanical watch?
Purchasing a mechanical watch requires paying attention to both its practicality and decorative appeal. Therefore, when buying a mechanical watch, you need to pay simultaneous attention to the exterior appearance and movement performance. Below, I bring you the points to note when purchasing a mechanical watch, hoping you will find it useful.
Precautions for purchasing mechanical watches
1. Appearance.
Visually inspect the case, dial and hands to ensure there are no pinholes or scratches; the plating should be bright, with no colour difference, and the case back closure should be tight.
2. Starting performance.
Slowly rotate the crown to wind the mainspring while observing the second hand. Generally, the fewer turns required to start the second hand, the better the starting performance of the watch.
3. Winding.
Winding should feel smooth and effortless with no abnormal noise. Aside from automatic watches which feature a slipping mechanism once fully wound, standard watch mainsprings should wind fully without slipping.
4. Time-setting.
The hand-setting feel should be comfortable; neither too tight nor too loose is ideal. The hour and minute hand alignment should be coordinated (when the hour hand is aligned with the 3, 6, 9, and 12 markers respectively, the minute hand must not deviate from the 12 marker by more than ±4 minute divisions), and the hour, minute, and second hands must not touch each other.
5. Acoustic check.
Once the watch is fully wound, listen to the ticking sound, which should be clear, even, and free of extraneous noise, remaining consistent regardless of orientation.
6. Timekeeping accuracy.
This requires measurement using specialist equipment. Some large state-owned stores offer customer testing services, and buyers may ask sales staff to check the timekeeping accuracy and positional error.
