Use only a soft and dry cloth to clean the clock. Dust and
particles contained in the cloth could scratch parts. Do not
use any kind of cleaning products to clean the clock. It is
recommended to keep the clock distant from any source of
heat or vibrations. To preserve the longevity and function-
ality of Grant, do not permanently expose the clock to di-
rect sunlight or in a humid/dusty place.
Our clocks are developed to ensure optimal accuracy and
reliability. It is well accepted for a ne mechanical clock to
have a few seconds’ variation per day and our clocks are
set so as not to delay. However if you should notice a big-
ger variation, please contact an authorised dealer who will
advise you, or a L’Epée 1839 technical support centre
which will proceed with the necessary adjustment.
As for all Horological pieces of art, it is recommended to
periodically service your clock. A mechanical masterpiece
requires ne oils for the lubrication of the movement.
These oils deteriorate over the years. We therefore advise
having the movement serviced every 3 to 5 years. Be aware
that the optimal period between servicing times can vary
depending on the surrounding environmental conditions.
It is recommended not to hold Grant only by one “arm”, or
by the top parts, but from underneath, with gloves – and
with the thumb on the shield to hold it in place and ensure
that it does not open accidentally while handling.
Do not roll Grant too quickly forward or backward; this
could result in the caterpillar tracks disengaging from the
rollers.
