HANDLING OF WATER RESISTANT WATCHES
Water resistancy of your watch is greatly aected by
the way the watch is treated – misuse will diminish water
resistancy by aecting the case and lens seals.
- Although the watch is warranted to the specications
marked, all care should be taken to avoid damage that
results from mishandling.
- Should your watch have a screw down crown, you must
ensure that the screw lock crown is completely tightened
at all times.
- If the watch comes into contact with salt or chlorinated
water, be sure to rinse it thoroughly in fresh water.
- If a watch is wet, do not store it in a closed container.
It should be dried out immediately to avoid damage to
internal components.
- Should water or condensation appear in the watch,
immediately have it serviced by those listed on your
warranty as water can corrode components.

- Pressure in bar (ATM) is a test pressure. This
measurement should not be considered as actual
immersion depth, as various conditions in beach surf may
cause false pressure conditions.
- The dial marking indicated (ATM, M or BAR) represents
the tested pressure.
