Breitling models are water-resistant to varying degrees. The extent of the water resistance,
expressed in metres (M), is a standard value and does not indicate an absolute immersion
depth. The crown and pushpieces must not under any circumstances be operated under
water or when the watch is wet. The table below indicates the conditions in which your
watch may reasonably be used, according to its degree of water resistance:
ACTIVITIES / DEGREE OF WATER RESISTANCE 3 bar/30 M/100 FT 5 bar/50 M/165 FT 10 bar/100 M/330 FT 50 bar/500 M/1650 FT+
Splashing
Shower, swimming, surface water sports
Water-skiing, dives, snorkelling
Diving
USEFUL TIPS
Breitling genuine leather straps are crafted with the most refi ned materials and represent
extremely high-quality products. Like all objects in natural skin (shoes, gloves, etc.), their
length of life varies considerably, according to the conditions in which they are worn. ln
particular, water, cosmetics and perspiration accelerate the ageing process. A metal or
synthetic Breitling bracelet is thus better suited to activities involving frequent contact
with water or moisture.
Breitling metal cases and bracelets are made from the fi nest alloys and guarantee stur-
diness and wearer comfort. Regular cleaning by rinsing and brushing in clean water will
keep your watch shiny. This operation is strongly recommended after each immersion in
salty or chlorinated water. For watches fi tted with a leather strap, the same advice applies,
as well as avoiding getting the strap wet.
WHAT TO AVOID
Like any valuable objects, Breitling chronometers deserve special care. It is important to
protect them from jarring and knocks by hard objects, and not to expose them to chemical
products, solvents, dangerous gases, or magnetic fi elds. Moreover, your Breitling chronom-
eter is designed to run smoothly at temperatures ranging between 0°C and 50°C.
