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.
Aquatic Parameters &
Care: While certified for standard daily lifestyle moisture resilience (3 ATM / 30m / 100ft), this timepiece is not intended for high-pressure submersions, swimming, saunas, or total submersion. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain the airtight integrity of the case.
Chemical &
Cosmetic Avoidance: Prevent direct contact with volatile chemical solvents, strong perfumes, hairsprays, or heavy cosmetic lotions, as chemical films can oxidize the steel surface or degrade the aesthetic luster of the metal joints.
Shock Resilience: While constructed from durable 316L steel, the internal mechanical assembly remains sensitive. Avoid severe, direct high-impact shocks (e.g., dropping onto hard surfaces) to preserve the internal movement assembly.
Pre-
Wear Inspection: Please thoroughly examine the structural finish, clasp operation, and dial alignment prior to initial wear, as post-wear service will be managed entirely via official certified factory channels.
