Band
The band touches the skin directly and becomes dirty with sweat or dust. Therefore, lack of care
may accelerate deterioration of the band or cause skin irritation or stain on the sleeve edge.
The watch requires a lot of attention for long usage.
●
Metallic band
•
Moisture, sweat or soil will cause rust even on a stainless steel band if they are left for a long time.
•
Lack of care may result in a rash or cause a yellowish or gold stain on the lower sleeve edge of shirts.
• Wipe off moisture, sweat or soil with a soft cloth as soon as possible.
• To clean the soil around the joint gaps of the band, wipe it out in water and then brush it off with a soft
toothbrush.
(Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.)
Clean it off with a soft cloth.
• Because some titan bands use pins made of stainless steel, which has outstanding strength, rust may
form in the stainless steel parts.
• If rust advances, pins may poke out or drop out, and the watch case may fall off the band, or the clasp
may not open.
• If a pin is poking out, personal injury may result. In such a case, refrain from using the watch and request
repair.

●
Leather band
•
A leather band is susceptible to discoloration and deterioration from moisture, sweat and direct sunlight.
• Wipe off moisture and sweat as soon as possible by gently blotting them up with a dry cloth.
• Do not expose the watch to direct sunlight for a long time.
• Please take care when wearing a watch with light-colored band, as dirt is likely to show up.
•
Refrain from wearing a leather band watch other than Aqua Free bands while bathing, swimming, and
when working with water even if the watch itself is water resistant enforced for daily use (10-BAR/20-BAR
water resistant).
●
Polyurethane band
• A polyurethane band is susceptible to discoloration from light, and may be deteriorated by solvent or
atmospheric humidity.
• Especially a translucent, white, or pale colored band easily adsorbs other colors, resulting in color smears
or discoloration.
• Wash out dirt in water and clean it off with a dry cloth.
(Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.)
• When the band becomes less flexible, have the band replaced with a new one. If you continue to use
the band as it is, the band may develop cracks or become brittle over time.
