Leaving your watch in extreme temperatures, may damage the watch or shorten the lifespan of its battery.


Every fine watch, no matter its type or make should be regularly checked by a jeweler or an authorized dealer and serviced according to the manufacturer's guidelines.


Watches should never be exposed to magnetism, as being exposed to magnetism may cause the watch to stop working properly. There are also people who have a personal high quality of electromagnet field, and usually are not able to wear watches for this reason, if the watch is new to the wearer, and continues to stop working, this may be the result of a personal electromagnet field.


Regularly wipe your watchcase and watch face, as well as the band with a soft cloth. A watchband made of metal, can be wiped clean with warm soapy water and a soft bristled brush.


Never attempt to repair a watch yourself, as this can cause serious damage to the watch and invalidate your watch factory warranties. Trust the expert artisans to do repairs on your watch.
