Mechanical Watch Demagnetization
Magnetism is one of the most common causes of sudden timing issues in mechanical watches and fortunately, one of the easiest to fix.
Local collectors in the Albuquerque area are welcome to contact JC Fine Watches to have their watch checked for magnetization and demagnetized on the spot if needed. The process takes just a few seconds and is completely safe for the movement.
Signs Your Watch May Be Magnetized
You might notice one or more of the following:
Running unusually fast, often +30 seconds to several minutes per day
Inconsistent timing — normal one day, wildly off the next
Stuck or “twitchy” seconds hand on certain movements
Accuracy changes after being near electronics (laptops, speakers, phone cases with magnets, handbags with magnetic clasps)
If any of this sounds familiar, magnetism could be the cause — and a quick test can confirm it.
Demagnetization is a fast, non-invasive procedure using industry-standard equipment and will never interfere with a manufacturer’s warranty.
If you’re in Albuquerque and want your watch checked, feel free to reach out to JC Fine Watches and set up a quick visit.
