  1. WATER RESISTANCE

    • The AChS-1 Version 5.1 is water resistant to 10 ATM, a standard measurement which means the watch can withstand a pressure of 10 atmospheres.
    • These watches are resistant to splashes and rain, and you can wash your hands wearing the watch. You can swim while wearing the watch and it can be submerged in water. However, these watches are not suitable for scuba diving.
  2. CARE
    We recommend that you clean your watch regularly (apart from the leather strap) with a soft cloth moistened with warm soapy water.

  3. PRECAUTIONS

    • Never attempt to open the case or remove the back cover yourself.
    • The rubber seals protecting the watch from water and dust are to be replaced every 2-3 years.
    • If any moisture gets inside the watch, immediately have its condition checked by an authorized service centre.
    • Do not expose the watch to extreme temperatures.
    • Do not handle the watch roughly (shocks, drops etc.).
    • Do not fasten the strap too tight. There should be a finger-wide gap between the wrist and the strap.
    • The watch should be stored in a dry place.
    • Keep the watch away from gasoline, cleaning solvents, aerosols from sprayers, adhesives, paints, etc. Chemical reactions caused by these materials can damage the seals, the case and finish of the watch.
    • The sapphire crystal is strong, but it may crack if the watch falls or receives a shock.
    • Avoid storing your watch with jewellery containing diamonds, as these can damage the sapphire crystal.
    • Store your watch in a separate, preferably specially designed case, lined with a soft protective material.
