Clock movement serves as high precision timing instrument and craft adornment, people is right use and maintain it is crucial, regard a personage that loves horological as a horological, do you know how to prolong horological really "life"? Anti - magnetic clock movement can not be used in strong magnetic environment? Of clock movement maintain also have "skill"? Do you know all this?
clock movement can not be used in strong magnetic field environment
General mechanical clock movement of the anti-magnetic ability is only in a limited range to achieve the anti-magnetic effect, if exceed its anti-magnetic ability, the steel parts in the watch movement will be magnetized, gossamer will also be affected, resulting in inaccurate watch walking, slow, fast phenomenon, serious will appear to stop walking. In addition, many users will ask, that I am not mechanical movement, is quartz movement, will it have an impact? Although there are few steel parts in the quartz clock movement, the strong magnetic field will also interfere with the normal operation of the rotor. Accordingly, general clock movement cannot be used in the environment of strong magnetic field, cannot put clock movement on electromagnet, loudspeaker, generator, transformer and equipment of large electric equipment.
clock movement cannot be stored together with camphor
Camphor (including natural camphor, synthetic camphor, coal tar brain) is a very volatile substance. Camphor is volatilizing all the time, put in almirah and box "camphor bolus" decayed slowly, it is the result that camphor volatilizes. The volatile molecules of camphor are easy to react with the lubricating oil in the heart of the clock and watch, making the lubricating oil deteriorate and lose its lubrication effect. Such clock cannot move normally so, affected travel time accuracy and service life directly. Accordingly, everybody's clock must not be stored with camphor together. When clock needs long time to deposit, should choose dry, clean, do not suffer the place of direct sunshine, and should use horologe to walk about every few months, in order to prevent time is too long, oil is sticky be greasy, when affecting to walk.
