GOOD QUESTIONS
A few things
to know.
Does opening a watch affect water resistance?
Opening the case can affect the seal. Ask about gasket checks and suitable pressure testing before relying on its water resistance.
Can you adjust my metal bracelet?
Many bracelets can be adjusted with the correct tools. Bring spare links if you need to make it larger.
Do all stopped watches need a battery?
No. Mechanical watches do not use a battery, and quartz watches can stop for other reasons. Assessment comes first.
