Bell & Ross approved retailer on the international guarantee certificate subject to applicable laws and/or legal
guarantees. This guarantee is total (parts and labor). It excludes however:

Water-reSiStanCe
Once the time has been set, put the crown back in position 0 to ensure
that your watch remains fully water resistant. The crown must never be
handled underwater.
Care
When traces of oxidation appear on the case, simply use the cloth sup-
plied with your watch. Imbued with a specific cleaning product, it will
give the Argentium
®
back its sparkle.
After being immersed in seawater, systematic rinsing of the watch and
its strap with fresh water is recommended. We also recommend that you
check that your watch is still watertight every two years. In order to guar-
antee service compliant with the requirements of the brand, any servicing
on your watch must be carried out by one Bell & Ross repair center or by a
watchmaker approved by Bell & Ross. For any repairs under warranty, you
will need to present the Bell & Ross warranty card, duly dated and signed
by the retailer at the time of purchase.
