What should you do if your DW watch accidentally gets water inside?
DW watchesgenerally feature everyday water resistance, but improper use can still lead to water entering the watch. Below, I will share how to deal with a water-damaged DW watch, and I welcome everyone to learn.
Handling water ingress in a DW watch
Method 1: Wrap the watch in tissue paper and place it inside a rice bin; the water mist will disappear after two days.
Method 2: If water droplets adhere to the inside of the watch crystal, it can easily cause the parts to rust and affect the accuracy of the timekeeping over time. If this happens, you can wrap the watch tightly with several layers of toilet paper or moisture-absorbing flannel, place it about 15 cm away from a 40-watt light bulb, and bake it for about 30 minutes to eliminate the water vapour inside the watch. Avoid placing the watch crystal directly close to a fire to bake, so as to prevent the crystal from deforming due to heat.
Method 3: If an electronic watch gets damp, you can take several small pieces of calcium chloride and wrap them in gauze; then open the electronic watch case back, and place the wrapped calcium chloride together with the electronic watch into an airtight plastic bag or glass bottle, and seal it. Generally, the moisture can be removed in about 3 hours, restoring the electronic watch to normal. For severely damp watches, the moisture absorption time can be appropriately extended.
Method 4: Wear the watch in reverse on your wrist with the watch crystal facing inwards and the case back facing outwards; the water vapour can be eliminated after two hours. If the water ingress is severe, it is best to send it to a watch shop immediately for oiling to remove moisture from the movement, so as to prevent the parts from rusting.
Scenarios of water ingress in a DW watch
(1) Condensation appears inside the watch glass, particularly when there are large temperature fluctuations.
(2) Water droplets condense inside the watch glass.
(3) Large water droplets are visible on the watch glass and dial.

The hazards of water entering a DW watch
First, as everyone knows, quartz and electronic watches are made up of resistors, capacitors, batteries, and other components. Water itself is a good conductor, and electricity will "flow" in water. If a large amount of water enters, it will short-circuit and burn out the quartz substrate in the short term. If only a small amount enters, there might not be any issues initially, but over time, the water will corrode the circuit board and cause permanent damage. Water ingress in a mechanical watch will oxidise the balance spring, gears, and other components, leading to a loss of accuracy or even rendering it unusable.
If you wear a watch into a sauna or take a hot shower, the high temperature in the sauna and large amounts of water vapour molecules will cause the waterproof rubber gasket inside the watch to lose its water-resistant function due to thermal expansion and contraction. This allows water or steam to enter, deforming watch components and altering the electrical properties of resistors and capacitors, ultimately causing the watch to stop or lose accuracy.
