Should you buy from an online sportswear store?

There are several reasons why buying any type of gym sportswear from an online store can be a great option:
  1. Convenience: One of the main advantages of buying sportswear from an online store is the convenience it offers. You can browse and shop for products from the comfort of your home or office, at any time of the day or night. This saves you the time and effort of physically going to a store, dealing with traffic, parking, and crowds.
  2. Wide selection: Online sportswear stores often offer a much wider selection of products than physical stores. This means that you can find a greater variety of styles, colors, and sizes to choose from, giving you more options to find the perfect fit for your needs.
  3. Competitive pricing: Online sportswear stores often offer competitive pricing, as they don't have the same overhead costs as brick-and-mortar stores. This means that you may be able to find the same products at lower prices online.
  4. Easy comparison: Shopping online allows you to easily compare prices, features, and reviews of different products, making it easier to find the best product for your needs and budget.
  5. Reviews and ratings: Online sportswear stores often have customer reviews and ratings for products, which can be very

Swiss Legend Monte Carlo watch. What size battery do I need for my watch please?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Misc to Watches. https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries How do I know what size battery for my watch? Sometimes this is printed on the back of the watch - as with some Timex watches - but in many cases you will need to open your watch case to see the code on the battery. The code can take various forms such as: CR1216. No one every tells battery types, because they vary. The answer is "the one that came out of it". https://www.google.com/search?q=Swiss+legend+Monte+Carlo+watch+battery ..

My dango watch second hand stops some time

If your Dango watch's second hand stops intermittently, there are a few things that could be causing the issue. Here are some possible reasons and solutions:

1. Low Battery: If the battery in your watch is running low, it could cause the second hand to stop. You may need to replace the battery in your watch. Check your watch's manual or take it to a watch repair shop to have the battery replaced.
2. Dirt or Debris: Dirt or debris can get inside your watch and cause the gears to stop moving properly. If this is the case, you may need to have your watch cleaned and serviced by a professional watch repair person.
3. Loose Second Hand: If the second hand on your watch is loose, it could cause it to stop intermittently. A loose second hand can be caused by a damaged pinion or cannon pinion. You may need to take your watch to a professional watch repair person to have it fixed.
4. Magnetic Interference: Magnetic fields can interfere with the movement of the gears inside a watch, causing it to stop or run erratically. If you have been around strong magnets or electronic devices, it could be causing the issue. Try moving your watch away from these devices to see if that helps.
5. Mechanical Issue: There may be a mechanical issue with your watch's movement that is causing the second hand to stop. This can be caused by a worn out gear or other component. You may need to take your watch to a professional watch repair person to have it fixed.

My watch not working how to setup

  1. Check the battery: Before attempting to set up your watch, make sure that the battery has not run down. If the battery is dead, you will need to have it replaced by a professional watchmaker or authorized Breitling service center.
  2. Wind the watch: If the battery is not dead, you may need to wind the watch to get it started. Most Breitling watches have a self-winding mechanism, but if it has not been worn for a long time, it may need to be manually wound.
  3. Set the time: Once the watch is running, you can set the time by pulling out the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) and turning it until the hands are set to the correct time. Push the crown back in when the time is set.
  4. Set the date: If your watch has a date function, you can set the date by pulling the crown out to the second position and turning it until the date changes. Push the crown back in when the date is set.
  5. Synchronize the time: If your watch has a chronograph function (stopwatch), you may need to synchronize the time to ensure that it is accurate. You can do this by starting the chronograph and waiting for it to complete a full revolution.
