And here’s a few tips to help keep your watch working perfectly…
• Never change the date between the hours of 8pm and 2am – it’s a little like changing gears in a car without
using the clutch - Never a good idea.
• Thoroughly rinse your watch in fresh water after immersion in salt water.
• Always ensure the crown is fully tightened before use in any water.
• Always adhere to the water resistance rating of your watch which you will find later in this handbook.
• Never fully wind your watch if it stops; 5-10 revolutions should suffice to have it restart.
• Wear your watch every day if possible as this will enable it to keep better time as well as preventing the
lubricants in the movement from solidifying.
• Consider buying one of our automatic watch winders, which replicates the wearing of your watch, if you
can’t wear your watch every day and/or own more than one watch.
• Although your watch is fitted with the finest Incabloc
™
anti-shock system it is best to avoid hard surfaces or
sharp knocks. You may not want to wear your watch playing racquet sports, for instance.
