Water Resistance - SHINOLA 5021.D Operation Manual & Warranty Book

WATER RESISTANCE

All the Shinola timepieces are designed with a minimum water-resistance rating
of 3ATM (100ft / 30m).
The water-resistance of a timepiece protects the movement from dust, moisture, and risk
of damage to the movement should it be immersed in water. Please see chart for guide-
lines for recommended exposure of various water ratings.
It is important not to attempt to adjust the position of the crown while the timepiece is
in contact with water. Water can enter the case causing damage to the movement. For
timepieces with screw-down crowns, it is important to ensure the crown is in the proper
position and completely locked before contact with water. For timepieces with chronograph
functions, do not engage the chronograph under water, as water may leak into
the case and cause damage to the movement.
