Band
The band touches the skin directly and becomes dirty from sweat or dust. Therefore,
lack of care may accelerate deterioration of the band or cause skin irritation or stain
on the sleeve edge. The watch requires a lot of attention for long usage.
Metallic band
○ Moisture, sweat or soil will cause rust even on a stainless steel band if they
are left for a long time.
○ Lack of care may cause a yellowish or gold stain on the lower sleeve edge of shirts.
○ Wipe off moisture, sweat or soil with a soft cloth as soon as possible.
○ To clean the soil around the joint gaps of the band, wipe it out in water and
then brush it off with a soft toothbrush (Protect the watch body from water
splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.).
○ Because some titanium bracelets use pins made of stainless steel, which
has outstanding strength, rust may form in the stainless steel parts.
○ If rust advances, pins may poke out or drop out, and the watch case may
fall off the bracelet, or the clasp may not open.
○ If a pin is poking out, personal injury may result. In such a case, refrain from
using the watch and request repair.
Leather band
○ A leather band is susceptible to discoloration and deterioration from
moisture, sweat and direct sunlight.
○ Wipe off moisture and sweat as soon as possible by gently blotting them up with a dry cloth.
○ Do not expose the watch to direct sunlight for a long time.
○ Please take care when wearing a watch with light-colored band, as dirt is
likely to show up.
○ Refrain from wearing a leather band watch other than Aqua Free bands while
bathing, swimming, and when working with water even if the watch itself is
water-resistant enforced for daily use (10-BAR/20-BAR water resistant).
Silicone band
○ As for material characteristics, the band is easily dirtied, and may be stained
and discolored. Wipe off dirt with a wet cloth or cleaning tissue.
○ Unlike bands of other materials, cracks may result in the band being cut.
Take care not to damage the band with an edged tool.
Notes on skin irritation and allergy
Skin irritation caused by a band has various reasons such as allergy to metals
or leathers, or skin reactions against friction on dust or the band itself.
Notes on the length of the band
Adjust the band to allow a little clearance with your wrist to ensure
proper airflow. When wearing the watch, leave enough room to
insert a finger between the band and your wrist.

Magnetic resistance (Magnetic influence)
Affected by nearby magnetism, a watch may temporarily gain or lose time or stop operating.
Indication on the case back
Condition of use
Keep the watch more than 5 cm
away from magnetic products.
Keep the watch more than 1 cm
away from magnetic products.

If the watch becomes magnetized and its accuracy deteriorates to an extent
exceeding the specified rate under normal use, the watch may need to be
demagnetized. In this case, you will be charged for demagnetization and
accuracy readjustment even if it happens within the guarantee period.
The reason why analogue quartz watch is affected by magnetism
It is because the built-in motor of the watch, which, harnesses magnetic
power and external strong magnetism, affect each other to stop the motor or
suppresses the turn of the motor.
