Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How does the watch wind itself if it isn’t worn for a few days ? The automatic movement has a power reserve. If the watch is not worn for more than 40 hours, simply wind it by hand about twenty times with the crown unscrewed to restart the mechanism before putting it back on your wrist.

Can the watch be used for deep scuba diving ? The certified 20 ATM water resistance is suitable for scuba diving up to the limits of recreational and technical diving. Ensure the crown is screwed back on tightly before entering the water and do not adjust it whilst submerged.

How should the watch be cared for after a dive in the sea ? A thorough rinse with fresh water is necessary after every dive to remove salt crystals and grains of sand trapped beneath the rotating bezel. Then dry it with a soft cloth.
