Important Notes
While water-resistant to 30 meters, this watch is not suitable for swimming, diving, or prolonged exposure to water. Although the sapphire crystal provides excellent scratch resistance, deep impacts can still cause damage, so caution is advised during sports or physical activity. As with all mechanical watches, periodic servicing every 3–5 years is recommended to maintain accuracy and functionality.
