For the well-equipped traveler... handsome leather watch case from Champ is expertly crafted in durable brown leather. Decorative white stitched detail accents the handsome cover. Full-length zippered case opens to a plush lined area that holds and safely protects four of your watches. Watch travel case is 5-1/4 inches wide, 2-3/4 inches high and 6-3/4 inches deep.
Winding Stem
The button on the right side of the watchcase used to wind the mainspring. Also called a "crown."
Watch Winding
Operation consisting of tightening the mainspring of a watch. This can be done by hand (by the crown) or automatically (by a rotor, which is caused to swing by the movements of the wearer's arm).
Watch Maintenance
About every three years, you should have your watch cleaned and serviced. For automatic watches, you'll need your battery changed, and for mechanical watches, you should have all the moving parts inspected and cleaned. For Tissot watches with water resistant seals, you should have the resistance checked annually using pressure equipment, and the seals should be changed as well.
