MAINTENANCE ADVICE
Panerai watches are made to very high standards of quality. It is worth
remembering that the mechanical parts run 24 hours a day when used, so the
watch must undergo regular maintenance to ensure long life and good operation.

RESISTANCE
Have your watch checked periodically for water-resistance by an Authorized
Panerai Service Centre and restore it every two years with regular servicing, or
whenever the watch has to be opened. The restoration of water-resistance
necessarily involves replacing the seals so as to
ensure the maximum water-resistance and security. Where the watch is used
in underwater sports activities, it is recommended that it should be checked
every year before the underwater activities begin.
T
HE MOVEMENT
Have the movement of your watch checked periodically by an Authorized
Panerai Service Centre so as to preserve its perfect operation. If the watch has
a tendency to gain or lose time to a significant degree, the movement may
need to be overhauled. The movements are designed to withstand
temperature variations between -10°C and + 60°C (14°F and 140°F). Outside
this range of temperatures, operational variations exceeding those set out in
the specifications of the movement may be noticed. In addition, there is a risk
that the lubricants contained in the movement may deteriorate, resulting in
damage to some of its parts.
C
LEANING THE EXTERIOR
To keep the exterior in perfect condition, we recommend washing your Panerai
watch with soap and warm water, using a soft brush. After this operation, and
also after bathing in the sea or a swimming pool, carefully rinse the watch with
clean water. All Panerai watches can be polished with a soft, dry cloth.
