Precautionary items and usage limitations

Caring for Your Watch

•  Wipe any dirt or moisture such as perspiration from the case and crystal with a soft cloth.

•  For a metallic, plastic or rubber (urethane) watchband, wash any dirt off with water. Remove the 

small amounts of dirt trapped between the crevices of the metallic band with a soft brush.

•  For a leather band, wipe off dirt using a dry cloth.

•  If you will not be using your watch for an extended period of time, carefully wipe off any 

perspiration, dirt or moisture and store in a proper location, avoiding locations subject to excessively 

high or low temperatures and high humidity.

<When Luminous Paint is used for your watch>

The paint on the dial and hands helps you with reading the time in a dark place. The luminous 

paint stores light (daylight or artificial light) and glows in a dark place.  

It is free from any radioactive substance or any other material harmful to a human body or 

environment.

•  The light emission gradually becomes weaker as time passes.

•  The duration of the light (“glow”) will vary depending on the brightness, types of and  

distance from a light source, exposure time, and the amount of the paint.

•  The paint may not glow and/or may dissipate quickly if exposure to light was not sufficient.
