Keeping Your Timepiece Working

Watches are some of the most treasured accessories amongst all the varieties of jewelry, often passed down to future generations.  However, it’s common for these treasured items to fall out of working order.  For all kinds of watches, whether it be a Rolex, Timex, Seiko, or Masonic watch, there are a few essential practices that will help keep it in top condition. 

The most common reason that watches stop working is, the battery (obviously).  If your watch stops working you should assume that it is due to the battery, though there are a number of other reasons that can also contribute.  Watch batteries can be replaced by jewelers.  If your watch is running slow or fast, it might need to be readjusted, which can also be done by the jeweler.  It’s also important to note there is a difference between water resistant and waterproof.  Water resistant means it won’t stop working due to precipitation, but if submerged, it can break; waterproof means it can be submerged and still work fine, though this often also depends on the depth.  Watches that are neither water resistant nor waterproof should be covered if water is present.

    What a great place to shop for masonic rings! The set of rings that we purchased here were all very lovely and awesome. I could see my friends and their face lighting up with glee when they saw the designs I had picked for them!…
