An additional specifi cation of pressure, such as “3 ATM”, means the test conditions have been tigh-
tened. The specifi cation “3 ATM” is not to be confused with the diving depth; it is simply the defi nition
of the inspection pressure. An inspection pressure of 3 ATM is reached at a depth of 30 meters.
In some cases a short-term higher pressure than the guaranteed inspection pressure may be
enforced on the seals, for example when swimming or diving into water.
Watches are at particular risk when the wearer dives into water after sunbathing. The combination
of the impact pressure with the negative pressure caused by the sudden drop in temperature can
quite easily cause damage.
It is important to check and, if necessary, replace seals when the battery is replaced.
Instructions for care
Your watch is a high precision electronic and mechanical masterpiece and should serve you well for
a long time.
Please note that your guarantee will be void in the event of improper use, unauthorised tampering
and improper battery replacement and does not cover glass breakages.
In the event of a guarantee claim please submit your invoice and the guarantee card. Please keep
your watch away from magnetic fi elds, heat, water and chemicals. Do not submit it to sudden impact
or abrasion. Watches should not be worn in bed.
If a battery operated watch stops or the low battery indicator shows, it should be taken to a speci-
alist as soon as possible to prevent the battery from causing damage in the watch or the environ-
ment. Batteries should be replaced by a specialist at regular intervals of approx. 1 – 1 ½ years.
The seals can then be checked and, if necessary, replaced at the same time.
In the event of condensation forming underneath the glass (misting), the watch should be taken to
a specialist as soon as possible to prevent the moisture from causing further damage. The crown
should always be fi rmly pressed in or screwed tight during use. The leather watch strap is subject to
normal wear and tear and, being a natural product, is particularly susceptible to moisture, perspira-
tion, chemicals and abrasion.
It is not indefi nitely durable and for reasons of hygiene should be replaced every 6-12 months,
depending on how often it is worn. The retaining pins should be checked and, if necessary, replaced
at the same time.
