A fogged watch usually means that there is moisture inside the watch, either because the tiny pores in the watch allow water vapor to enter, or because changes in temperature cause the water vapor inside the watch to liquefy. There are several ways to solve the problem of your watch fogging up, but you should choose the appropriate method according to the situation of the watch and be careful not to damage the watch.
First, you can try wearing the watch upside down, with the watch mirror facing inward and the bottom case facing outward, and wear it on your wrist for two hours. This can sometimes help to remove moisture from inside the watch.
Second, you can use a desiccant. Put the watch in a sealed container, add some desiccant (such as silica gel particles), then close the container and shake it gently to allow the desiccant to fully absorb the water. This method may take some time, but it is usually effective in removing fog.
Alternatively, you can also use the baking method. Wrap the watch in paper towels or a clean cloth, place it about 15 cm away from a 40-watt incandescent bulb, and bake it for about 30 minutes. Please note that the watch should not come into direct contact with flames or high temperatures to avoid deformation of the watch glass due to heat.
It should be noted that the above method is suitable for slight fogging. If the watch is severely flooded or the fog cannot be completely removed, it is recommended to send it to a professional watch repair shop promptly. If the fog inside the watch is left untreated for a long time, it will cause the watch movement to rust and affect the accuracy of timekeeping. Therefore, timely measures should be taken. The repair shop staff will take more professional measures to remove moisture from inside the movement and may replace the waterproof rubber ring to ensure the waterproof performance of the watch.
Please be careful when dealing with a fogged watch to avoid unnecessary damage to the watch. If you are unsure about the operation or are concerned that improper operation may damage the watch, it is best to take it directly to a professional repair shop for repair.
