CARE
AND
MAINTENANCE
How
to
ensure
an
excellent
service
of
your
Armand
Nicolet
watch
for
many
years
Manual
Winding
Watch
Wind
your
watch
only
once
a
day
,
preferably
in
the
morning
,
turning
the
crown
clockwise
until
it
becomes
hard
to
turn
.
Avoid
over
winding
your
watch
,
don
’
t
force
the
crown
or
you
will
break
the
winding
mechanism
.
Self
Winding
Watch
To
start
and
set
your
watch
,
wind
it
manually
first
(
turning
the
crown
clockwise
several
turns
in
a
clockwise
direction
until
the
second
hand
moves
)
then
set
the
time
and
date
(
for
instructions
on
setting
the
time
and
date
,
see
the
section
relative
to
the
model
purchased
).
Your
watch
has
a
sophisticated
automatic
winding
mechanism
that
continuously
self
winds
the
movement
according
to
the
movement
of
your
wrist
.
If
you
wear
the
watch
during
the
day
for
approximately
12
-
16
hours
,
the
self
winding
mechanism
will
provide
a
power
reserve
of
around
34
hours
(
depending
on
how
much
you
move
your
wrist
while
wearing
the
watch
).
If
you
wear
the
watch
less
than
12
-
16
hours
a
day
,
the
power
reserve
will
not
reach
its
maximum
charge
causing
it
to
drain
before
34
hours
.
If
you
do
not
wear
your
watch
daily
but
you
would
like
it
to
continuously
keep
its
power
reserve
,
we
advise
you
to
purchase
an
automatic
watch
winder
which
allows
you
to
place
your
watch
on
its
rotating
supports
that
turns
it
in
two
directions
,
always
keeping
the
watch
with
its
maximum
power
reserve
.
4
ENGLISH
If
you
prefer
to
manually
wind
your
watch
when
not
wearing
it
,
you
should
turn
the
crown
daily
for
about
55
complete
turns
to
have
the
34
hours
power
reserve
,
if
it
is
a
manual
winding
watch
for
about
23
complete
turns
.
Each
time
you
turn
the
crown
with
your
finger
you
make
only
an
half
turn
,
so
it
is
advised
to
double
the
amount
of
turns
you
make
with
your
fingers
to
reach
the
complete
turns
.
WARNING
:
IT
IS
STRICTLY
ORBIDDEN
THE
USE
O
ELECTRIC
MOTORS
OR
PLASTIC
BANDS
TO
TURN
THE
CROWN
BECAUSE
THE
HIGH
SPEED
IN
TURNING
THE
CROWN
RISKS
THE
DAMAGING
O
THE
WINDING
MECHANISM
.
Screwed
Down
Crown
Some
models
are
furnished
with
screwed
down
crowns
.
To
set
the
watch
the
crown
must
be
completely
unscrewed
.
When
completely
unscrewed
,
the
crown
functions
like
a
normal
crown
.
To
avoid
damaging
the
winding
stem
caused
by
the
incorrect
use
of
the
screwed
in
crown
,
follow
the
directions
below
:
1
.
Unscrew
the
crown
completely
turning
it
in
a
counter
clockwise
direction
then
position
it
into
the
time
setting
position
.
2
.
ollow
the
section
in
the
Operating
Instructions
referring
to
the
model
that
you

.
3
.
After
having
set
the
calendar
and
the
time
push
in
the
crown
to
the
winding
position
and
wind
the
watch
turning
it
in
a

direction
.
4
.
After
having
wound
the
watch
,
screw
the
crown
in
turning
it
in
a
clockwise
direction
while
pushing
the
crown
in
contemporarily
.
Your
watch
is
now
sealed
and
ready
to
wear
.
Water
Resistance
Your
watch
is
water
resistant
up
to
the
depth
indicated
on
the
back
of
the
case
.
To
ensure
water
resistance
before
immerging
your
watch
in
water
please
be
certain
that
:
•
for
watches
with
screwed
in
crowns
and
pushers
.
The
crown
and
the
pushers
must
be
completely
screwed
in
:
•
for
watches
with
normal
crowns
.
The
crown
must
be
pushed
completely
against
the
case
;
•
Although
our
watches
are
designed
and
built
so
that
the
pushers
and
crown
can
be
used
even
when
submerged
in
water
we
recommend
that
you
do
not
trigger
them
when
the
watch
is
underwater
as
the
internal
gaskets
of
these
device
damaged
by
hits
or
corrosive
substances
(
not
visible
to
the
naked
eye
)
leading
to
risky
water
or
humidity
infiltrations
inside
the
movement
.
ENGLISH
5
If
you
want
to
use
these
devices
completely
safely
when
the
watch
is
submerged
in
water
we
recommend
testing
your
watch
every
year
for
water
resistance
in
a
service
center
conveniently
equipped
.
After
having
used
the
watch
under
salt
water
,
rinse
it
with
fresh
water
at
room
temperature
.
Luminous
The
luminous
featured
in
our
watches
is
made
only
of
non
radioactive
material
and
glows
only
if
the
pigments
have
been
fully
activated
so
that
they
emit
light
for
about
5
hours
with
a
descending
performance
.
Best
results
are
achieved
with
sunlight
or
bluewhite
artificial
lamps
.
or
example
if
a
watch
is
permanently
covered
by
the
shirt
-
sleeve
it
gets
activated
only
weakly
,
and
little
light
is
emitted
in
the
dark
.
Shocks
Avoid
any
kind
of
shocks
whether
physical
or
thermal
to
your
watch
do
not
expose
it
to
temperatures
higher
than
60
°
C
or
140
°
and
lower
than
0
°
C
or
32
°
.
Magnetic
ields
Avoid
placing
the
watch
near
loudspeakers
or
other
apparatuses
generating
magnetic
fields
.
Chemicals
Avoid
direct
contact
with
detergents
,
perfumes
,
cosmetics
,
solvents
,
etc
.,
since
they
may
damage
the
case
gaskets
,
the
strap
or
the
bracelet
.
Cleaning
To
maintain
the
brightness
of
your
watch
,
your
bracelet
and
rubber
strap
,
do
not
use
abrasive
materials
for
cleanings
.
Wash
them
with
a
soft
brush
,
lukewarm
water
and
neutral
soap
then
rinse
with
tap
water
and
dry
with
a
soft
cloth
.
Leather
straps
Our
leather
straps
are
produced
from
only
the
best
quality
leather
and
only
leather
from
animals
raised
in
captivity
,
not
from
protected
wild
species
leather
we
use
has
been
produced
from
natural
methods
and
do
not
contain
any
toxic
compounds
.
In
order
to
preserve
the
beauty
and
condition
of
your
strap
for
as
long
as
possible
we
recommend
:
6
•
not
to
immerse
the
strap
in
water
;
•
to
avoid
prolonged
exposure
to
intense
sunlight
or
spot
lights
to
prevent
the
colour
from
fading
;
•
to
avoid
contact
with
greasy
substances
,
creams
and
cosmetic
products
•
to
clean
it
periodically
with
a
soft
brush
or
a
soft
cloth
.
Anti
-
Glare
The
anti
-
glare
treatment
on
the
sapphire
crystals
of
the
Armand
Nicolet
watches
is
made
up
of
three
super
thin
layers
of
special
salts
applied
on
both
sides
of
the
crystal
.
These
super
thin
films
significantly
reduce
the
light
reflection
of
the
crystal
and
considerably
improve
readability
of
the
dial
and
hands
in
different
light
conditions
.
or
the
best
efficiency
of
the
anti
-
glare
we
recommend
accurately
cleaning
the
crystal
with
a
soft
clean
cloth
,
like
the
one
supplied
with
your
watch
.
A
rough
cloth
or
a
brush
may
damage
or
remove
part
of
the
anti
-
glare
film
.
ln
case
the
efficiency
of
the
anti
-
glare
has
been
reduced
by
dirt
or
greasy
deposits
determined
by
the
normal
every
day
use
,
we
suggest
washing
the
crystal
with
lukewarm
water
and
neutral
soap
,
rinsing
it
off
,
drying
and
cleaning
it
with
a
clean
soft
cloth
.
Overhaul
and
After
Sale
Service
Your
watch
is
a
mechanical
watch
and
like
all
sophisticated
mechanisms
it
needs
a
periodical
overhaul
.
To
maintain
the
efficiency
and
precision
of
your
Armand
Nicolet
watch
we
suggest
you
submit
it
for
an
annual
check
up
of
the
functions
and
the
water
-
resistancy
to
an
Armand
Nicolet
Authorised
Retailer
.
The
number
of
complete
overhauls
depends
upon
the
model
,
the
climate
,
the
usage
and
also
on
the
owner
'
s
individual
care
.
As
a
general
rule
,
your
watch
should
be
serviced
every
five
years
.
or
servicing
we
recommend
to
submit
the
watch
to
an
Armand
Nicolet
Service
Centre
who
are
the
only
appointed
centres
,
equipped
with
the
necessary
