Watch Care & Instructions
Watch Care
Below are some quick guides to get you started with your new watch or learn to care for the one you already own.
Bracelet/Strap Care
Bracelet Watches
Direct contact with sprays such as hairsprays, perfumes or detergents may cause damage to your bracelet.
Leather Straps
Leather straps deteriorate at different rates depending on climatic conditions, sweat acidity and levels of wear and tear. To ensure your leather strap lasts as long as possible take the following precautions: 1) avoid soaking your strap in water, 2) avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, and 3) avoid direct contact with solvents, detergents and perfumes.
Sterling Silver
All precious metal products should be cared for with a polishing cloth and stored in the presentation box when not being worn.
Automatic Watches
The self-winding device in automatic watches keeps the watch wound while it is being worn. Off the wrist, our watches will likely keep going for between 28 to 48 hours. To restart the watch after this time, rewind it manually. Alternatively, place in an automatic winding box.
Hand-Wound Watches
Remove watch from wrist and wind crown in a clockwise direction whilst off the wrist.
Quartz Watches
All quartz watches are powered by batteries so it is not necessary to wind them. If your quartz watch stops, have the battery checked as soon as possible. A "dead" battery may cause serious damage to the movement if left inside the watch too long. Quartz analogue watches contain both electronic and mechanical parts which require periodic servicing.
