Many people spend thousands of dollars for their luxury watches, but just like any other expensive item, it is always a good idea to take care of it. Here is some advice on taking care of your watch.

Since an automatic watch is constantly moving, then not moving, then moving again it suffers from wear and tare.  Just like a car automatic watches require watch repair from time to time.  A common misconception is automatic watches should run forever with no repairs.  This simply is not true.  Even the best watches need fixing… Read this entire blog.
