1.4 SPECIAL RECOMMENDATIONS AND
TOLERANCES
What should I do so that my Raidillon watch works perfectly for many years?
•
Magnetic fields
: avoid placing your watch on speakers or a refrigera-
tor, as these appliances generate strong magnetic fields which could
damage your watch mechanism.
•
Sea swimming
: always rinse your watch with fresh water after swimming.
Leather, buffalo and alligator straps aren’t designed to resist to water.
•
Impacts
: thermal and mechanical shocks should be avoided!
•
Crown screwing
: If need be, always carefully screw the crown in order to
prevent the mechanism to be exposed to water and dust.
•
Cleaning
: metallic bracelets and cases should be cleaned using a tooth-
brush and soapy water, and dried with a soft cloth.
•
Chemical products:
avoid direct contact with solvents, detergents, per-
fumes, cosmetic products etc. as they could damage the strap, the case
and the gaskets.
•
Temperatures:
avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures
(above 60°C or 140° F and below 0° C or 32° F) or to extreme variations.
•
Chronograph pushbuttons
: in order to prevent water from penetrating
the mechanism, don’t manipulate chronograph pushbuttons underwater.
