Horology notes & hair care, from our specialists.
An automatic watch stays healthy with a little routine: keep it wound, wipe it clean, keep it clear of magnets and hard knocks, and service it every 5 to 7 years.
A dive watch earns its place as a daily wearer through 200m water resistance, a sapphire crystal and lugs short enough to sit under a cuff. Here is what to check.
A mechanical watch wants a full service every five to seven years, before the oils dry and pivots start running dry. Here is what that service buys you and the signs you have left it too long.
A dress watch is defined by restraint: a case under 9mm thick, a quiet dial and a leather strap that lets the watch vanish beneath a shirt cuff.
A microfibre wipe after each wear handles most of it; a soft brush and mild soapy water deals with the rest, provided the crown is shut and the water resistance is up to it. The method, strap by strap.
Three watches, each with a distinct job, cover every occasion without overlap: one everyday piece, one dress watch, one sports or dive watch. The formula scales to any budget.
Buying your first luxury watch? Prioritise a sapphire crystal, 100m water resistance and a case sized to your wrist over brand hype. A practical buying guide.
Leather dresses a watch up, a steel bracelet does almost everything, and rubber owns the water and the heat. How the three strap materials compare on comfort, formality and upkeep.
The movement is the engine of a watch. Automatic winds from your wrist, manual by hand, quartz from a battery, and each buys you a different mix of accuracy, upkeep and feel.
