How do mechanical watches adjust time? Correct method of adjusting time of Rolex watch

How do I adjust the time of Rolex watch? Most of the designs of today's mechanical watches are becoming more and more complex. Many of them have weeks and calendars. Therefore, many friends often don't know how to adjust when they encounter this situation. Then this article brings you the method of adjusting the time of Rolex watches. Let's have a look

How do mechanical watches adjust time? When is the best time to adjust the mechanical watch?

1. Do not adjust the date from 22:00 to 2:00 (20:00 to 4:00 for some watches), which is easy to cause damage to the watch and incorrect calendar jump.

2. In order to prolong the service life of watches, many watches use the method of slow jump, that is, gradually jump around midnight. Generally, it is normal to complete the jump before 2 a.m. and some watches complete it until 4 a.m.

3. If the calendar jumps during the day, it can be adjusted - if it is found that the calendar jumps around noon during the day, the time of the watch is generally 12 hours faster and slower. For example, it is 11:00 a.m. now, but the watch is 11:00 p.m. the day before. You only need to turn the clock of the watch one more time, that is, change the afternoon to morning. This situation is common, with a 50% chance.

4. Generally, watches need to be turned clockwise rather than counterclockwise when adjusting time. Turning the watch counterclockwise is easy to cause the deviation of the pointer of the watch (the quartz two needle type should be turned counterclockwise). Special attention should be paid. If it is worn with the left hand and adjusted with the right hand, the forward rotation is clockwise.

5. The styles of watches are different, and the adjustment methods are also different, but the morning and afternoon factors need to be considered when adjusting watches with calendar function.

How do you adjust the week and calendar of the mechanical watch? What are the precautions

1. The week and calendar can't be adjusted from 21:00 to 3:00 in the morning, which hurts the watch. The beat of the calendar is driven by gears, which usually jump slowly.

2. Mechanical watch is different from quartz watch. The date and week of quartz watch jump at zero point. This accuracy only appears in electronic watch. The pointer mechanical watch is not so accurate. It may be advanced or delayed because the date and week are driven by a wheel,

3. If you jump words at the same time, the driving force is very demanding. So change it separately. Generally, the change of week will be skipped within half to a few hours after the change of date.

4. If the date of the watch is 11:00, 12:00 and 1:00 p.m. Don't worry, just turn the clock clockwise for one week, and then readjust the date.

5. The adjustment button in the middle has two gears. The first gear is the adjustment date and the second gear is the adjustment time. When adjusting the first gear, rotate backward to adjust the date and forward to adjust the week. If the table itself does not display the week, you do not need to set the week.

The adjustment methods of watches of different brands and styles are slightly different. It is best to refer to the instructions of corresponding watches.
