CARE AND MAINTENANCE 

Dust and particles contained in a cloth could scratch 
parts. Do not use any kind of cleaning products to wipe 
the clock or the skull. It is recommended to keep the clock 
distant from any source of heat or vibrations. To preserve 
the longevity and functionality of Vanitas, do not perma-
nently expose the clock to direct sunlight or in a humid or 
dusty place. 

Our clocks are developed to ensure optimal accuracy and 
reliability. It is well accepted for a fine mechanical clock 
to have a few seconds’ variation per day and our clocks 
are set so as not to delay. However if you should notice a 
bigger variation, please contact an authorized dealer who 
will advise you, or a L’Épée 1839 technical support center 
which will proceed with the necessary adjustment. 

As for all Horological pieces of art, it is recommended to 
periodically service your clock. A mechanical masterpiece 
requires fine oils for the lubrication of the movement. These 
oils deteriorate over the years. We therefore advise having 
the movement serviced every 3 to 5 years. Be aware that 
the optimal period between servicing times can vary de-
pending on the surrounding environmental conditions.
