Maintenance

Cleaning

Regularly clean your watch with a soft, dry cloth. For water-resistant models, a soft brush and soapy water can be used for the case and metal bracelet, followed by thorough rinsing with fresh water and drying. Ensure the crown is fully closed before cleaning with water.

Solar Cell Care

To maintain optimal performance, ensure your watch is regularly exposed to light. Avoid prolonged storage in dark places, as this can deplete the solar cell's charge and affect accuracy or function availability.

Strap Care

The black synthetic band should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture, which can degrade the material. Allow the strap to air dry completely.

Service Recommendations

For comprehensive maintenance and to ensure water resistance, it is recommended to have your Tissot watch inspected by an authorized service center every 3 to 5 years. This includes checking gaskets and overall movement condition.
