Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and smudges. For the stainless steel band, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
- Water Resistance (3ATM): This watch is designed for daily water resistance. It can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as washing hands or doing housework. Do not wear the watch while swimming, diving, or showering with hot water, as steam can penetrate the seals. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any water exposure.
- Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect the movement and seals.
- Chemicals: Keep the watch away from chemicals such as solvents, detergents, perfumes, and cosmetics, which can damage the case, band, or seals.
- Magnetic Fields: Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, as this can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement.
