Care &
Maintenance Instructions: To protect the high-precision internal mechanical caliber and maintain the pristine finish of your Swiss timepiece, please follow these professional guidelines:
Mechanical Motion &
Winding Protocol: Since this is a self-winding mechanical watch powered entirely by kinetic energy, it requires regular bodily movement to stay wound. For optimal performance, wear the watch for at least 8 hours daily. If the watch has been stored for an extended period or has completely stopped, gently turn the crown clockwise 20 to 30 times before wearing to manual-wind and re-engage the power reserve.
Chronograph
Pusher Restrictions: To safeguard the delicate stopwatch synchronization wheels, never press the reset pusher while the central chronograph hand is actively running; always press the start/stop pusher to fully halt the mechanism before resetting. Never operate pushers underwater.
Aquatic Parameters &
Care: This luxury timepiece is rated for everyday lifestyle moisture resilience (5 ATM / 50m / 165ft) designed to protect against rain or accidental splashes.
It is strictly not intended for swimming or total submersion. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed back tight against the case.
Leather Strap Maintenance: To preserve the longevity of the genuine leather strap, avoid direct exposure to prolonged moisture, intense perspiration, or alcohol-based perfumes, which can cause the leather to dry, crack, or degrade over time.
Pre-
Wear Inspection: Please thoroughly examine the structural finish, dial alignment, and secure clasp operation prior to initial wear, as post-wear service will be managed entirely via official certified factory repair channels.
