La Compagnie des Montres Longines, Francillon S.A. grants you, with effect from the purchase date, a twenty-four (24) month warranty on all LONGINES® watches models and a five (5) year warranty on the automatic watches purchased from January 1, 2021, under the terms set out in this warranty. All watch straps and bracelets are covered by a 24-month international warranty for any material or manufacturing defects. The LONGINES international warranty covers defects in materials and manufacturing that exist at the time of delivery of the LONGINES watch purchased (“defects”). The warranty takes effect only if the warranty certificate has been dated and fully completed by an official LONGINES dealer (“valid warranty certificate”). During the term of the warranty and on presenting the valid warranty certificate, you are entitled to have any defect repaired free of charge. In the event that repairs cannot restore your LONGINES watch to full working order, La Compagnie des Montres Longines, Francillon S.A. undertakes to replace it with an identical LONGINES watch or another LONGINES watch with similar characteristics. The warranty for the replacement watch expires on the same date as the warranty for the replaced watch.

The warranty does not cover:

• battery life;
• normal wear and tear (such as scratches on the case and/or glass; alteration of the colour and/ or material of cases, straps, bracelets and chains made of leather, textile, rubber or any other non-metallic material; the PVD coating; the colour of bronze);
• damage to any part of the watch resulting from  unsuitable/improper use, neglect, carelessness, accidents (knocks, dents, crushing, scratches when changing the strap/bracelet, etc.), incorrect use of the watch, or failure to follow the instruction manual;
• harm of any nature whatsoever resulting directly or indirectly from using the LONGINES watch or from any operational failure, defect or lack of precision in the watch;
• a LONGINES watch having being handled by a non-approved person (for example, for the purposes of replacing the battery or carrying out servicing or repairs) or having been altered from its original state other than under the supervision of La Compagnie des Montres Longines, Francillon S.A.

Any other claims against La Compagnie des Montres Longines, Francillon S.A., for example for any kinds of damage or harm other than those set out in this warranty, are expressly excluded, excepting statutory rights that the purchaser can assert against the manufacturer.

Precautions concerning waterresistance

A watch’s water-resistance can be affected by changes caused by the gaskets drying out, or an accidental shock to the crown. To help maintain your watch’s water-resistance, we recommend rinsing it in soft water after any contact with sea water and having its water-resistance checked once a year by an approved LONGINES Service Centre. In no circumstances should you open your watch yourself.
IMPORTANT! Never activate the time-setting crown and/or push-pieces when the watch is underwater, and ensure that the crown and push-pieces are pushed in or screwed down before any immersion in water.

WARNING
KEEP THE BATTERY OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
The battery can cause serious injuries if swallowed or placed inside any part of the body. Seek medical attention immediately.

Hour, minute, seconds, day, month, date, moon phase and 24h display. Can time events lasting up to 12 hours, displaying the results to the nearest 1/5th of a second.
Screw-in crown
Some LONGINES models are equipped with a screw-in crown, which must be unscrewed before setting the time, correcting the date or winding, by turning it anti-clockwise. After making the settings, return the crown to position 1, then push it back in and screw it in firmly to ensure the watch’s water resistance.
Avoid setting the time while the chronograph function is in use Before each timing operation, the chronograph hands must be at their start point.

Setting the time and stop seconds

Pull the crown out to position 3 when the small seconds hand (situated at 9 o’clock) is at 60. Turn the crown either way to the desired time display. As soon as the time is synchronised, push the crown back into position 1.
Please refer to the 24H indicator to adjust to the desired time, in terms of a.m. or p.m.
Avoid any date, month and day correction, or use of the corrector 4, between 19:00 and 06:00; this could damage the mechanism.

Quick date and month correction
Pull the crown out to position 2, and then turn it backward to the desired date and month display. During this operation, your watch will continue to run; no time adjustment will be required. The date  needs to be corrected after every month shorter than 31 days. Push the crown back into position 1. The date will change when the hour hand passes midnight.

Moon phase correction
Pull the crown out to position 2, and turn it forward until the full moon appears in the centre of the moon phase window. Find out the date of the last full moon, and turn the crown forward through as many revolutions as the number of days elapsed since the last full moon, then push the crown back into position 1.

Day correction
Press the corrector 4 situated at 10 o’clock to correct the day using the corrector tool.

Standard Start – Stop – Reset function
Used for timing a single event:

• Press push-piece 2: the chronograph will start.
• Press push-piece 2: the chronograph will stop.
• Press push-piece 3 to reset.

Rally Add function (partial times)
Used for measuring successive events, but not the intervals between them. Each result is automatically added to the preceding one. To time the various stages of a car rally, for example, follow the procedure below:

• At the start of the first stage, press push-piece 2: the chronograph will start.
• At the end of the first stage, press push-piece 2 again: the chronograph will stop.
• Repeat for each stage of the rally.
• At the end of the final stage the chronograph will show the total time of the rally, in other words, the accumulated time for all the stages.
• Press push-piece 3 to reset.
