Mechanical Watches – A Journey Through Craftsmanship

Mechanical watches are nothing short of art. They symbolize precise timekeeping and exceptional craftsmanship. In today’s tech-driven world, mechanical watches hold a special significance. They are more than just accessories—they represent elegance and tradition. In our newest magazine issue, we take you on a journey into the mesmerizing world of mechanical watches.


How Do Mechanical Watches Work?

Mechanical watches are timepieces that don’t require a battery. They work by using the energy from a wound spring. This energy is passed through a series of gears and springs to drive the movement, which powers the hands. The accuracy of a mechanical watch is determined by the quality of the movement. The better the movement, the more precise the timekeeping.


We feature mechanical watches from brands like Frederique Constant, Emporio Armani, and Citizen.



Types of Mechanical Watches

There are two types of mechanical watches: manual wind and automatic. Manual watches need to be wound by hand to tighten the mainspring. Automatic watches have a rotor that winds the mainspring as the wearer’s arm moves, making them ideal for daily wear.

Maintenance

Mechanical watches need regular upkeep to maintain their precision and durability. It’s recommended to take them in for professional cleaning and servicing every three to five years. Regularly cleaning the case and strap will also help ensure your watch stays in top condition. Be mindful to avoid storing your watch near magnetic fields, as they can negatively affect its accuracy.



Conclusion

Mechanical watches are timeless classics that remain beloved in our digital world. They are not just accessories but technical masterpieces. The skill and craftsmanship involved in creating a mechanical watch are truly extraordinary. If you’re in search of a durable and elegant watch, and if you want to start a new tradition or develop a new passion, a mechanical watch is the perfect choice!
