water-resistance test should be done every year; it takes only a few minutes
and can be performed by your authorized B
REITLING
dealer.
B
REITLING
models are water-resistant to varying degrees. The extent of the
water-resistance, expressed in meters (M) is a standard value and does not
indicate an absolute depth of immersion. The crown and pushpieces must
not under any circumstances be operated under water or when the watch is
wet. The table below indicates the conditions in which your watch may rea-
sonably be used, according to its degree of water-resistance.
USEFUL TIPS
B
REITLING
genuine leather straps are crafted with the most refined
materials and represent extremely high-quality products. Like all objects in
natural skin (shoes, gloves, etc.), their length of life varies considerably,
according to the conditions in which they are worn. In particular, water,
cosmetics and perspiration accelerate the aging process. A metal or syn-
thetic B
REITLING
bracelet is thus better suited to activities involving fre-
quent contact with water or humidity.
B
REITLING
metal cases and bracelets are made from the finest alloys and
guarantee sturdiness and wearer comfort. Regular cleaning by rinsing and
brushing in clear water will keep your watch shiny. This operation is strong-
ly recommended after each immersion in salty or chlorinated water. For
watches fitted with a leather strap, proceed in the same manner, while
avoiding getting the strap wet.
WHAT TO AVOID
Like any valuable objects, B
REITLING
chronometers deserve special care. It
is important to protect them from jarring and knocks by hard objects, and
not to expose them to chemical products, solvents, dangerous gases, or
magnetic fields. Moreover, your B
REITLING
chronometer is designed to run
smoothly at temperatures ranging between 0°C and 50°C.
