Cleaning A Self-Winding Watch To Ensure Accurate Timekeeping
On some premium wristwatches, the narrow second hand remains in continuous motion as it slowly sweeps around the dial. Rather than jumping from second to second, the hand never stops as it smoothly measures the passage of seconds. On a periodic basis, even a luxury wristwatch needs maintenance or repair, especially if it is losing or gaining a noticeable amount of time.
A self-winding watch does not require manual winding on a regular basis, nor does it utilize battery power.
