Time is the most precious thing we possess - yet we often treat it as if it were infinite.

Many people have their watch batteries replaced quickly and cheaply. What many don't know, however, is that for certain watches, the water resistance should be re-checked after a battery change.
Even the smallest leaks can lead to moisture penetrating the movement. The consequences can be corrosion and, in the worst case, costly repairs.
Our tip from Gossauer Bijouterie:
Have the battery replacement for waterproof, sports, or diving watches carried out professionally by our watchmaker and, if desired, have the water resistance checked.
Our watchmaker checks your watch with a pressure testing device, inspects the seals, and replaces them if necessary. This way, potential leaks can be detected early.
This additional check is particularly worthwhile for sports and diving watches. It protects your watch and can save you from unpleasant and expensive surprises.
