Our watches, crafted with an immense amount of care and excellence aim at providing the best service you could ever receive. We aim to live up to the age old reputation of Swiss watch making and satisfy your demands to the best of our abilities. However, this can only be possible when proper care and attention is given to these masterpieces and the watches are dealt with care. Give these products the adequate maintenance and see them shine on for ages and attract appreciation wherever you go!
Your watch, like most other things you love, demand your time and attention when it comes to maintenance. With the due amount of care that all our elegant watches deserve, our products will last you longer and work with more efficiency. But without adequate care and maintenance, these delicate pieces might start to falter.
Like any object, your watch is negatively affected by dust, perspiration, pool and sea water. Salt crystals from the skin could attack the metal of the case and the band, the crown and leather strap. Things which seem harmless and minuscule affect your watches at a deeper and more significant level. The working parts of these watches are minuscule too, and thus the small dust or salt particles can greatly affect the functioning of these. Several other factors too, adversely affect your watch and can hamper its functioning.
We recommend that you clean your watch with a slightly damp, soft cloth at regular intervals. The metal and the gold plating will retain their original color and luster longer. Taking good care of your watches is a prerequisite for its smooth and efficient functioning.
Metal bands on watches with a minimum water resistance of 3 A T M can be washed with cold water and a mild soap. But make sure you check the watch’s water resistance before resorting or applying this method. In case the water resistance does not match the requirement, it might hamper the watch.
Make sure that the crown is pushed into place, and that the crystal is in good condition before making any contact with water. Never use hot water.
Have a professional watch-repair service replace the battery. A professional watch maker knows how to check the gaskets and how to replace them, if necessary. Do not trust amateurs with precious pieces like our watches. Always explicitly ask to check the water resistance, if you want your watch to remain water resistant after a battery replacement or repair.
