4. Maintenance and Care
4.1 Water Resistance
The watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming in shallow water, showering, and exposure to rain or splashes. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any water exposure.
4.2 Cleaning
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the finish. For the mineral crystal, use a soft, lint-free cloth.
4.3 Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a product-specific battery (included). When the battery needs replacement, it is recommended to take the watch to an authorized service center or a professional watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
