One of the latest elegant timepiece brands to hit the market is Maurice Lacroix watches. Whilst they are new, the quality of these timepieces is certainly superior. This company has made breakthroughs in developing watches that are innovative. The company is based in Switzerland and they added retrograde displays, chronographs and moon phase indicators to their watches. The pride and passion of watch making in these watches is obvious and the question is how to take care of these valuable timepieces?
These watches do not come custom made and therefore it may necessary to adjust the watch bracelet to fit your wrist. The spring-loaded pin in the bracelet is what you would work with in order to adjust the bracelet to suit your wrist. Work on a cloth when working with the spring as it is tiny and you could drop it and not be able to find it. You will find the hole to insert the pin that will make the strap fit you best. Some watches have screws to which the links are attached; in this instance, you will require a screwdriver that fits these screws to be able to adjust the watch bracelet.
A watch strap with not enough holes in it is too big for you. Leather straps often present this problem. Do not try to adjust the leather strap on your own unless you have a leather punch, rather take it to someone who has a leather punch so that the strap is not damaged.
Manual wind watches should be wound up at the same time each day. By winding your watch up in the first part of the day the watch will have maximum power that will last all day and result in better keeping of time.
Do not attempt to wind up the watch whilst it is still on your wrist, rather take it off and then wind it up. By not taking off the watch, you put strain on the strap and the winding system of the watch.
You should wind your watch at a consistently slow speed until you feel the mainspring tighten and resist. Pushing it further than the point of resistance could damage the components, as well as the mainspring. Gently, slow winding strokes are best for your watch.
Watches can sometimes stop for no apparent reason and this is often the case with the cheaper automatic versions, as they do not have a winding stem to start up again. When this happens, gently swing the watch in the formation of an arc and it will start up. Manual wind watches can get started up again by gently turning the winder for a couple of minutes.
Some watches are water-resistant, but what exactly does that mean? On your watch or the packaging, there will be a code such as WR30 m, WR50 m, WR100 or WR200 m. The higher the number, the more water resistant the watch is. The type of wetness is more important than the depth. Hot water is not good for the seals, neither is soap and detergents, heat or chlorine. Always rinse your watch in fresh water after swimming or getting in touch with seawater, soaps and detergents or hot water.
Watch out for magnets near your watch as they can cause the watch to malfunction. Computers and the magnetic seal on the freezer door can cause this. A watchmaker will have the equipment needed to sort this issue out promptly.
All watches regardless of whether are inexpensive or costly should be maintained properly. Both quarts and mechanical watches should be maintained and looked after so that they enjoy a long life span. The Maurice Lacroix gents watch are built to last and are durable, particularly if you look after them. You will love your new men’s watches.

Watch bracelets are usually not custom made and therefore usually require some adjustment. It is often possible to adjust the bracelet using the spring-loaded pin that is in the clasp of the bracelet. When you want to adjust your watch bracelet, do it on a cloth to prevent the pin from falling out and flying to the other side of the room. It should be quite easy to find a suitable hole that is comfortable. This also applies to watches that have screws that attach the links. If you have a watch with screws, it is imperative that you find a screwdriver that is of exactly the right size.
If you have a watch with too few holes, it is often too big. This is often the case with leather straps. Unless you have the proper leather punch, it would be a good idea to take the watch to someone who has the right tools.
