Water Resistance (3ATM / 30M)

Your LIGE watch is designed with 3ATM (30 meters) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use, such as hand washing, rain, or accidental splashes. It is not suitable for showering, bathing, swimming, diving, or any water-related work. Avoid pressing any buttons or pulling the crown while the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise the water seal.

Maintenance

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and functionality of your LIGE watch.

  • Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals.
  • Battery Replacement: The watch uses a CR123A battery, which has an approximate lifespan of 3 years. When the watch stops or the second hand skips, it's time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.
  • Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect the accuracy and lifespan of the movement.
  • Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, such as those produced by speakers, refrigerators, or mobile phones, as they can temporarily affect the watch's accuracy.
  • Impact: While durable, avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong impacts.
