    A Rolex watch that is worn daily does not need winding. The Perpetual rotor uses the movement of your body to power the watch and it can hold this power for up to 70 hours. If you take off your watch for an extended period of time, more than the 70 hours, then it will need winding. Manual winding can be done by unscrewing the crown to the winding position and turning it clockwise about 20 times. Remember to screw the crown back tightly to reestablish its waterproof qualities. Shop a collection of authentic Rolex watches from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.

    To change a battery in a pocket watch, you must first remove the watch back.

Because there is so much variability in timepiece design and you could potentially damage your watch when removing the back and other parts, experts recommend having an experienced watch repairer replace the battery. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of pocket watches.

    How long a Michele watch battery lasts varies. On average, people typically need to replace watch batteries at least once per year, but lifespans can range from 5 months to 3 years in some cases. One way to extend the life of your watch battery is to pull out the crown of the watch, the way that you do when you set it before placing it in storage. This will stop the watch, sparing the battery. Keep in mind that you'll need to reset your watch when you put it back on if you use this method of battery conservation. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Michele watches.
