Watches, as a common accessory, are getting more and more attention from the public. Watch movement has also become an important measure of watch quality. However, as watch movements are mechanically operated, they may have a slight error after long-term use and need to be adjusted. In this article, we will share the methods about watch movement adjustment so that watch lovers can better maintain their watches.

Types of movements

There are two main types of watch movements: mechanical and quartz. Mechanical movements turn the hands of a watch by mechanical operation, while quartz movements turn the hands of a watch by vibrating quartz crystals. Therefore, different types of movements require different approaches when it comes to tuning.

Calibrating the movement mechanical movement

Mechanical movement adjustments are more complex and require a certain level of specialized knowledge and skill, so if you don't have the relevant background it is recommended that you don't try to adjust it on your own. Some generalized methods are as follows:

1. Adjust the time: pull out the crown to the second position, press the crown to stop the second hand, then turn the crown counterclockwise to the correct time.

2. Adjusting the jump-in: After adjusting the time, let the needle go to 59 seconds, then pull out the second hand and rotate the crown counterclockwise so that the hour and minute hands are adjusted to the correct position.

3. Adjust the calendar: Pull out the crown to the second position, then turn the crown counterclockwise to adjust the date and clockwise to adjust the month until the date and month are correct.

Compared to mechanical movements, quartz movements are relatively simple to adjust and require the use of some special tools:

1. Adjust the time: Press the crown button by hand to stop the second hand, then rotate the crown to the correct time.

2. Adjust the date: use a special tool to rotate the date adjustment knob to adjust the date, adjust the month to use another adjustment knob.

3. Calibrate the second hand: If the second hand does not move accurately, you can use a special tool to calibrate it.

Through this article, we have learned about the types of movements and how to tune them. Be sure to pay attention to the details when tuning, and if you are not sure, you can also seek professional help. May our watches serve us accurately all the time.
