![]() On selected models, the battery end-of-life (EOL) indicator signals that the battery should be replaced within a few days.In this case, the battery life will be reduced by half. For example, a chronograph consumes more energy than a 3-hand timepiece, especially when the chronograph function is running constantly and is not stopped when switching to time mode. Normally, a battery should last approximately 24 months, but its lifespan depends on a number of factors. Therefore, in contrast a mechanical movement, the battery needs to be replaced. The movement of a quartz watch is provided by a battery, eliminating the need to wind the watch manually.When fully wound, it will have a power reserve of 36 to 42 hours, ensuring continuous running. If you are an owner of a mechanical watch, you should make sure you wear the watch for 8 to 10 hours a day to fully wind it.Therefore, we recommend that our customers have the movement serviced and rate readjusted every 5 years. Also, mechanical movements are much more sensitive than quartz movements to various parameters such as gravity, physical shocks due to the wearer’s activities, magnetism, and temperature variations. To maintain their accuracy (between -2 /+ 20 seconds per day), mechanical movements need regular maintenance and checks.If your watch stops or is not worn for long enough periods, the movement will have to be wound manually by turning the crown back and forth a few times. Automatic winding: mechanical self-winding watches wind themselves automatically when worn on the wrist.To avoid damaging the mechanism, do not over-wind. All you have to do is turn the crown back and forth until you feel a slight resistance. Manual winding: you must wind a simple mechanical watch daily and at a regular time in order to ensure the smooth running of your watch.The watch comes with a white or black face. (Butterfly-Clasp) The watch width is 46mm and the face heights is 37mm.
