Water resistance
All our watches meet international standards
for water resistance to at least 3ATM / 30M /
99 feet, so faucet spray or rain won’t hurt
them as long as the case, crown and crystal
remain intact. Timepieces marked water
resistant to 50M / 5 ATM / 165 feet may be
worn while showering or swimming, but not
scuba diving.
CAUTION: Do not press the push-buttons on a
chronograph model when the watch is under
water, or it will not remain water resistant.
NOTES: We recommend that you do not
get your leather strap wet. Exposing leather
to water can cause premature wear and
deterioration.
Carefully wipe your watch using a soft cloth
dampened with fresh water after exposure to
chlorine or sea water.
Battery infOrmatiOn
Your quartz analog watch or chronograph has
a battery specially designed for watches. It
will last approximately 18-36 months under
normal use.

sHOck
All our watches have shock-resistant
movements and are tested to meet international
standards for shock resistance.
magnetism
The exposure of a timepiece to a strong
magnetic field will affect its time-keeping, and
may cause it to stop. A quartz watch should
resume working with its original accuracy when
removed from the magnetic field; an automatic
or hand-wound mechanical timepiece, however,
may require demagnetization before it will
operate again.
