Like every other engine, the mechanical items of this little one need to be maintained too. It has to be lubricated and overhauled with good oiling, good gaskets to ensure its long-lastingness in service, let alone the scars, it adds character to the watch, and of course, every scar tells a story.
I believed every owner of SKX007 has different time and frequency for its engine maintenance. Yes, it depends on the usage and how timely the watchkeeping its time. As mine now is picking up +5 minutes a day, something I can never tolerate.
As you can see above, my SKX007 get foggy due to the high humidity in the atmosphere. Now in Malaysia, the weather gets scorching in the afternoon, wet in the evening (therefore, if you have problem with your car air conditioning, means another reason to get another free one grey hair on your head + the unitchy itchiness!
Surely, it gives you hell! So go and fix your air-cond first then only the watch :-)).
Well, anyway, this is where the Sinn’s copper sulphate technology becoming useful in their own 757/756 watches, read more about the technology here: https://www.sinn.de/mobile/en/Ar-dehumidifying_Technology.htm
...another reason to love Germany watches...aaa I really missed the look of my Damasko D46 😠(sold already).
