Caring for your BALL watch

Like a car engine, we recommend that you have your mechanical BALL
watch checked, cleaned and lubricated by a BALL authorized service center
every three to five years. This regular maintenance will prevent movement
wear due to the drying of lubricating oils.
Your BALL watch requires a certain amount of care. A few basic
recommendations will help you to ensure its reliability and keep it
looking new.
• Magnetic fields: The Engineer Hydrocarbon, Engineer Master II and
Engineer II collections are all equipped with soft iron inner antimagnetic
case for improved resistance. Nevertheless, please avoid placing your
watch on refrigerators or loudspeakers as they generate powerful
magnetic fields.
• Shocks: Although your BALL watch has been built to withstand shock
according to the highest standard in the industry, extreme impact against
this precision instrument should still be avoided. A strong impact on the
winding crown or the crystal can impair the water resistance or damage
the movement.
• Cleaning: Be sure to rinse your watch regularly with fresh water, especially
after it has been in salt water. This will help preserve its appearance and
running condition.
