How are the shock resistance and anti-magnetic properties of Omega watches?

　　How are the shock-resistant and anti-magnetic properties of Omega watches? Allow me to introduce the shock-resistant and anti-magnetic performance of Omega watches to everyone below.

　　Shock-resistant and anti-magnetic performance of Omega watches

　　Generally, Omega watches have a certain degree of shock resistance, and the internal shock-resistance features of Omega watches can function when subjected to external impacts. If situations occur such as the quartz watch battery disconnecting from the positive and negative terminals, or the mechanical watch balance wheel disc becoming displaced resulting in the watch stopping, please do not assume the watch is broken; in fact, you simply need to take it to an authorised service centre to have it re-installed properly.

　　A so-called anti-magnetic Omega watch does not mean that all parts within the watch are anti-magnetic, merely that the main components, such as the balance wheel, balance spring, and mainspring, are made from anti-magnetic materials.

　　Items such as televisions, sound systems, refrigerators, mobile phones, induction cookers, electric mahjong tables, and magnetic bags—although some Omega watches possess shock-resistant and anti-magnetic functions, they only serve a preventive role. Therefore, you should avoid severe impacts or placing Omega watches next to electrical appliances that generate magnetic fields or magnetic objects. The above causes will result in the watch stopping or losing accuracy.

　　Watch maintenance methods

　　1. Frequently use a relatively soft cloth or silk to gently wipe away dirt and sweat stains on the case.

　　2. Manual-winding mechanical watches should be wound at a fixed time, preferably fully wound at one go. When turning the crown, the speed should be moderate, and do not wind it too tightly. Over-winding can easily cause the mainspring to stick to the oil in the barrel. When the mainspring relaxes, it can easily break due to excessive elasticity.

　　3. Watches are most sensitive to violent vibrations. It is best to take it off when playing ball games or hitting things with your hands, unless you are sponsored by the brand like the person below.

　　4. Watches are also susceptible to water damage. Therefore, it is best to remove your watch when washing clothes, washing hands, or doing other work that involves contact with water. If fogging or water droplets appear on the watch crystal, it should be serviced promptly to wipe away the moisture and dry the movement. If you find fogging or condensation droplets on the watch crystal, please pull the crown out, place the watch face down for a day, and then push the crown back to its original position to resolve the issue (the occurrence of this issue does not mean the watch's water resistance has deteriorated; it may be that the crown was unintentionally pulled out from its original position during use).

　　5. Please keep the watch away from magnetic objects such as radios and televisions to avoid affecting its accuracy.

　　6. Please do not allow the watch to come into contact with solvents, mercury, cosmetic sprays, detergents, adhesives, paints, or camphor, otherwise the case and strap/bracelet may discolour, deteriorate, or become damaged. Camphor is a highly volatile substance that can easily cause the movement oil to solidify, losing its lubricating effect and thereby damaging the accuracy of the timepiece.

　　7. Do not expose the watch to sudden cold or heat. Extreme temperature changes will increase the timekeeping error of the watch. The mainspring inside a mechanical watch is prone to breaking due to rapid temperature changes, and the rubber gaskets will age faster, which will also affect the watch's water resistance.

　　8. Do not remove the case back casually to prevent dust from getting inside; nor should you tamper with it indiscriminately. If damaged, take it to a watch repair shop promptly.
