What causes DW watch dials to discolour?

　　Although dial discoloration in DW watches is uncommon, what generally causes it when it does occur? Let us explore this topic together.

　　Causes of DW watch dial discoloration

　　Cause 1: Water ingress or prolonged exposure to dampness in DW watches. Poor case sealing allows external moisture and humidity to seep inside the DW watch, which easily induces dial discoloration or peeling of the dial clear coat, characteristically occurring frequently around the edges of the dial.

　　Cause 2: DW watches placed or exposed to sunlight for extended periods. Various rays in sunlight gradually discolour everything; exquisite items are no exception and nothing can escape this.

　　Reason three: DW watches coming into contact with radiation or radioactive materials. Radiation is used in medical treatments and certain industrial processes, and it is highly potent, capable of causing discolouration in materials within a very short time. Someone once took a DW watch case to a metal research and testing department for gold-plating thickness testing. The equipment they used emitted intense radiation. As soon as the experiment finished and the case was removed, it was ruined; the previously clear watch crystal had turned brown, with uneven shading, looking like a mottled mess. In the jewellery industry, radiation is used to change the colour of certain gemstones, such as topaz, and also for pearls. If you are a patient undergoing radiotherapy or having medical examinations involving radiation, please do not wear your DW watch to the hospital.

　　Dial discolouration is the most serious quality defect for a watch dial and should not exist at all. Its typical characteristics are: if it is a discoloured spot, there will be a tiny core surrounded by a circular infiltration stain. Sometimes multiple such discoloured spots appear on the dial. If not addressed promptly, the discolouration may become increasingly severe. Therefore, if you notice your DW watch dial is discolouring, you must deal with it immediately.

　　Maintenance methods for DW watches

　　1, ensure it is on your wrist to avoid premature wear of the metal bracelet

　　2, rinse the watch in lukewarm water after contact with seawater or swimming pool water

　　3, it is best to wear it every morning before winding. This ensures optimal operation throughout the day and during movement, making it less sensitive to shocks and temperature changes.

　　4, the water-resistant seals keep moisture and dust out of the watch. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked at an authorised service centre every year. It only takes a few minutes and ensures long-term protection.

　　5, magnetism is present in our daily environment and may affect the precision of a mechanical watch. Contact does not cause any permanent or irreversible damage to the movement. In most cases, simply demagnetising the watch will enable it to resume its normal rate.
