Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 149, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 June 1915 — Care of Watch at Night. [ARTICLE]

Care of Watch at Night.

The care of the watch at night or when it is not in use is an important item, concerning which the bureau of standards states: “At night, or when the watch is not in use, it is desirable to leave the watch in the same position as during the day, and preferably in some place where is will not be subject to any great temperature change. If it is desirable to leave the watch in a horizontal position during the night for the sake of compensating any considerable gaining or - losing of the watch in the pendant-up position during the day, the same precaution to avoid marked temperature changes should be observed, and the regularity with which such a change of position is carried out may be as important as regularity of winding.”
