Precautionary items and usage limitations
<Protective Stickers>
• Be sure to remove any protective stickers that may be on your watch (case back, band, clasp, etc.).
Otherwise, perspiration or moisture may enter the gaps between the protective stickers and the parts,
which may result in a skin rash and/or corrosion of the metal parts.
CAUTION
• Rotate the crown while it is pressed in fully and press the buttons periodically so they do not become
stuck due to accumulations of foreign matter.
• The case and band of the watch come into direct contact with the skin in the same manner as
undergarments. Corrosion of the metal or unnoticed soiling such as that caused by perspiration and
dirt can soil sleeves and other portions of clothing. Keep your watch clean at all times.
• The case and band of the watch come into direct contact with the skin. If you think there is something
wrong, discontinue wearing the watch immediately and consult your physician.
In the case of accumulation of sweat or dirt on a metal band or case, clean thoroughly using
a brush and neutral detergent. In the case of a leather band, wipe clean using a dry cloth.
• Leather bands may become discolored by perspiration or dirt. Always keep your leather band clean
by wiping with a dry cloth.
