What should you do if your quartz clock watch accidentally gets water in? The watch repair master will teach you how to deal with it. A simple and economical method is to put a granular substance called silica gel into a sealed container with the quartz watch that has accumulated water. After a few hours, take out the quartz clock watch and all the water will be gone. disappear.

This method is simple and economical, and does not cause any damage to the accuracy and life of the clock. Silica gel that has absorbed water many times can be dried at 120°C for several hours, its water absorption capacity can be regenerated, and it can be used repeatedly. If the water damage is not serious and there is just a layer of fog in the quartz clock watch glass, you can wrap the watch tightly with several layers of toilet paper or moisture-absorbent flannel and bake it for about 30 minutes 15 cm away from a 40-watt light bulb to eliminate the moisture. Do not bake the watch directly near fire to avoid thermal deformation of the watch. You can also wear the watch on your wrist with the cover facing inward and the bottom case facing out. The moisture will be eliminated after two hours. If the water intrusion is serious, it is best to send it to a watch shop immediately to apply oil and remove the moisture from the movement to prevent the parts from rusting. If your watch is more expensive or has serious water damage, it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for cleaning. After all, their professional knowledge and equipment are relatively complete, which can minimize damage to the movement. I hope the above methods can help you.
