• Even if your watch has a high level of water resistance, please be careful of the following.
- If your watch is immersed in sea water, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and wipe with a dry cloth.
- Do not pour water from a tap directly onto your watch.
- Take off your watch before taking a bath.
• If seawater enters the watch, place the watch in a box or plastic bag and immediately take it in for
repair. Otherwise, pressure inside the watch will increase, and parts (crystal, crown, push button, etc.)
may come off.
CAUTION
<Band>
• Leather, genuine skin and rubber (urethane) bands will deteriorate over time due to perspiration, body
oils and dirt. Be sure to replace the band periodically.
• The durability of a leather band may be affected when wet (fading, peeling of adhesive), owing to the
properties of the material. Moreover, wet leather may cause a rash.
• It is recommended to take off the watch if it gets wet, even if the watch itself is water resistant.
