malaysia climate is very extreme.... hot n super humid compare to europe....
so this lead to alot of problem... u will sweat alot, and alot of moist in the air....
unless u r wearing divers.... when moist get into your watches....
u will see the oxidation on the dial (silver, brass, paint, gold....), hands (blued steel, paint...), gasket (rubber, silicon)...
and the salty sweat from human... can contains various chemical.... this can even harm the st steel....
take a look at those old rolex.... look at the bracelet and case back....
the the oil in hot climate and wet... will hv different life span...
and mechanical watch is human made.... by hand.... even a master control who run through a 1000 hours test also may still got problem....
then dont expect a solid gold case harder than st one.... st can be harder than those harden st...
how many watches pass through shock, anti magnetic, water resistant test before the sell?
