The water­resistance of IWC watches is stated in bar
and not in metres. Metres, which are often used else­
where in the watch industry to indicate water­resist­
ance, cannot be equated with dive depth because of
the test procedures that are frequently used. Water­
resistance shown in metres provides no indication as
to actual use of the watch in the presence of mois­
ture and wetness, and in or under water. Recommen­
dations for use in connection with the water­resist­
ance of your watch can be found on the Internet at
www.iwc.com/water­resistance. Your authorized IWC
Official Agent will also be pleased to provide you with
information.
To ensure that your watch continues to function per­
fectly, you should have it checked by an IWC service
centre at least once a year. Your watch should also be
tested after exposure to unusually harsh conditions.
If the tests are not carried out as stipulated, or if the
watch is opened by unauthorized persons, IWC will
accept no warranty or liability claims.
Recommendation: Your authorized IWC Official Agent
must carry out a water­resistance test whenever your
IWC watch is opened and serviced.
