Basic rules for daily interaction

To ensure your watch remains reliable over time:

  • Avoid cosmetics, creams & perfumes
Residues can damage seals and coatings. After contact with skincare products, we recommend gently cleaning your watch with clear water and a soft microfiber cloth.

  • Avoid heat & temperature fluctuations
Extreme temperatures (e.g. sauna, oven) can affect the case and movement.

  • Keep away from magnetic fields
Electronic devices, magnetic clasps, and similar sources can interfere with timekeeping accuracy.

  • Water & moisture
Even with water-resistant watches: After contact with saltwater or chlorinated water, rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Always ensure the crown is closed before exposing the watch to water.
