TO PRESERVE THE QUALITY OF YOUR WATCH Daily care 2 ● The watch requires good daily care • Do not wash the watch when its crown is in the extended position. • Wipe away moisture, sweat or dirt with a soft cloth. • After soaking the watch in seawater, be sure to wash the watch in clean pure water and wipe it dry carefully. Do not pour running water directly from a faucet onto the watch. Put some water into a bowl first, and then soak the watch in the water to wash it. * If your watch is rated as "Non-water resistant" or "water resistant for daily use," please do not wash the watch. "Performance and type" → P.30 "Water resistant performance" → P.32 ● Turn the crown from time to time • In order to prevent corrosion of the crown, turn the crown from time to time. • The same practice should be applied to a screw down crown.
