For maximum efficiency and to prevent damage, a mechanical watch should be serviced every three-to-five years depending on the manufacturer’s recommendation. Quartz WatchesQuartz watches are designed to provide an accurate and reliable service. However, they need special handling, and should be serviced every one-to-two years. Automatic Watches:In automatic watches, the action of the wrist, even slight action, causes the rotor to rotate. The mainspring, which powers the watch, is wound via the movement of the rotor.
