Taking Care of a Watch

By Jodie Simmons


A watch is an item that is often a prized possession and just like many forms of jewellery they can be quite costly. One of the main purposes of a watchis to provide us with the time and this practical application means that they are an item that we quite frequently use and although they are fashionable pieces of jewellery, this means that they do go through quite a range of wear and tear. Degradation and scratching are two of the first signs of wear and tear and these commonly occur over time, so if you can give your watch some down time it's important to store it correctly.

Keeping your watch in a good condition can be made a great deal easier and a watch storage box can really help you on your way to this. The atmosphere is one of the most dangerous elements to our watches as the oxygen can start an oxidation process to tarnish the materials, so storing them in an airtight container can really help to stop this process from happening.

A silver or gold design is usually specifically problematic when it comes to oxidation in the atmosphere and this can leave your watch with a rather tarnished effect. Your watch can quickly begin to degrade or wear away from extended periods of exposure to oxygen so even storing it for a small amount can help to slow down the process.

The main form of storage for a watch is a box and these can come in a variety of styles and designs, tailored to meet your individual watch. When it comes to materials, any kind of leathers, especially raw black leathers are great materials to line the boxes with and these help to prevent the watches from becoming damaged while they are being stored.

If it is something slightly more sophisticated that you are looking for then you could consider an oak wood style lining to your sunglasses case instead.
