What must I do to ensure that my OMEGA watch provides me with excellent service for many years?
Magnetic fields :
avoid contact with magnets, or putting your watch on top of loudspeakers,
refrigerators or magnetic cases for iPads or other tablets, since such objects generate magnetic fields
which could disturb the functions of your watch
Swimming in the sea :
always rinse your watch with fresh water afterwards
Shocks :
whether physical, thermal or other, avoid them
Crown :
push it back against the case into the wearing position to prevent moisture from entering the
case
Cleaning :
for metal bracelets, rubber straps and water-resistant cases, use a toothbrush and soapy
water for cleaning and dry with a soft cloth
Chemical products :
avoid direct contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics, insect
repellents, etc , since they may damage the bracelet, case or gaskets
Temperature :
avoid exposure to extreme temperatures (greater than 60°C, or 140°F, less than 0°C, or
32°F) or extreme temperature changes
Water-resistance :
a watch’s water-resistance cannot be permanently guaranteed It may notably be
affected by the ageing of gaskets or by an accidental shock to the crown As stipulated in our service
instructions, we recommend you have the water resistance of your watch checked once a year by an
authorized OMEGA Service Centre
Pushers:
do not operate pushers underwater, in order to prevent water from entering the mechanism
