Some faq:
Question: How often should I service my watch?

Question: Why does my winder break?
Perspiration, humidity and non-hermetic closing of the casing are the main reasons for winder breakages.

At the start of the event to be timed, he turns the bezel so that the zero marker- often a triangular pointer- is aligned with the watch’s minute or seconds hand. When the event ends, he reads the elapsed time off the bezel.
Some rotating bezels are designed for purposes other than time measurement. A rotating slide-rule bezel lets the wearer perform arithmetic calculations. A rotating compass bezel allows the watch to be used as a solar compass.
