WATER RESISTANCE

Usage precautions for a water resistant watch

 

Ø Do not wear your watch while bathing or in a sauna. Steam, soap or some components of a hot spring may cause the metal used in the watch to discolour and deteriorate. This will also accelerate the deterioration of gaskets which will eventually affect the watch’s water-resistant performance. 

 

Ø Do not operate the crown or any button while the watch remains wet as this may cause water penetration. 

     Ø If the watch becomes wet, wipe off moisture with a soft dry cloth.
