of normal wear and ageing of the watch, strap,
or glass, the loss of water resistance after two
years from the date of purchase, if your watch
is water-resistant, or any defect resulting from
contact with water, if your watch is not water-
resistant.
Jaeger-LeCoultre water-resistant watches can
be identified by the symbol
and/or by
“3, 5, 10, or 20 bar” (or another number de-
pending on the model) engraved on the case-
back. Their water resistance is guaranteed for
two years from the date of purchase, provid-
ed that the glass, bezel, back, middle part, and
crown have not been damaged. It is neverthe-
less essential to have the water resistance of
your watch checked at least once every two
years, and in any event, prior to any period of
intensive use, either by an authorised Jaeger-
LeCoultre retailer, a Jaeger-LeCoultre Bou-
tique, or authorised Jaeger-LeCoultre Service
