Care Guide
- Daily Care: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wear to remove perspiration, dirt, and oils that can accumulate throughout the day.
- Water Exposure: Although water-resistant to 50 metres, avoid operating the crown when the watch is wet or submerged. Dry the watch thoroughly after any water contact.
- Crown Position: Ensure the crown is pushed fully in against the case after setting the time. This maintains the water resistance seal and protects the movement.
- Avoid Impacts: While robust, quartz movements can be damaged by severe impacts or shocks. Remove your watch during high-impact activities or heavy manual work.
- Chemical Exposure: Keep your watch away from solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics, and chemicals, as these can damage the case finish, seals, and bracelet.
- Magnetic Fields: Avoid prolonged exposure to strong magnetic fields from speakers, mobile devices, or magnetic clasps, as these can temporarily affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Temperature Extremes: Do not expose your watch to extreme temperatures (below 0°C or above 50°C) or sudden temperature changes, which can affect performance and seals.
- Bracelet Cleaning: Periodically clean the stainless steel bracelet with a soft brush and mild soapy water, then dry thoroughly. This prevents buildup in the links.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The original box provides ideal protection.
- Professional Servicing: Have your watch inspected every 2-3 years, especially when replacing the battery. This allows us to check seals, clean the movement, and ensure optimal performance.
