Knowledge you should know before buying mechanical replica watches
The basic principle of mechanical replica watches? Tips before buying
For replica watches that use the mainspring to store power, the power comes from the energy stored in the mainspring. The release of the energy from the mainspring drives the gears to act, which in turn drives the watch to operate. The power influence of the clockwork, the accuracy varies from plus or minus 30 to 60 seconds per day (depending on the movement level), and it requires frequent adjustment of the time and regular maintenance, so no battery is needed!
Manual winding
The clockwork needs to be manually wound to drive the fake watch. Manual mechanical replica IWC watches usually wind up the clockwork in the watch by rotating the crown, and use the clockwork system to release kinetic energy to activate the timekeeping function of the replica watch.
A fully wound clockwork can usually be used for more than 30 hours, up to 72 hours. If you want the watch to run continuously, it is usually recommended to wind the clockwork once a day, but do not wind it too tightly, otherwise it will cause hair loss. The barrel is damaged, and different time and temperature will also affect the mainspring.
Automatic winding
An automatic plate is added to the movement, and the automatic plate in the watch moves by the movement of the wrist, thus achieving the effect of winding. Since the movement of the wrist will continue to wind the fake watches, the automatic winding has a function to prevent the clockwork from being too tight to avoid damage to the clockwork. It is recommended to choose this type.
Affected by gravity / friction, there will be errors. Daily errors within 60 seconds may be considered normal and may be troublesome, but the principle is the same whether it is a mechanical watch with hundreds of thousands to thousands of pieces. But the more expensive the watch, the error will be slightly less, watching the movement swing and enjoy every second of beating, this is the charm of the watch.
