• Remember that you wear your watch next to your skin, just like a piece of clothing.
Because of this, you should always keep your watch clean. Use a soft, absorbent
cloth to wipe off any dirt, sweat, water, or other foreign matter from the case and
band.
Dangers of Poor Watch Care
Rust
• Though the stainless steel used for the watch is highly rust-resistant, rust can form
if the watch is not cleaned after it becomes dirty. Failure of oxygen to come into
contact with the metal because it is dirty causes breakdown of the oxidization layer
on the metal surface, which leads to the formation of rust.
• Even if the surface of the metal appears clean, sweat and rust in crevasses can
soil the sleeves of clothing, cause skin irritation, and even interfere with watch
performance.
Premature Wear
• Leaving sweat or water on a resin band or storing it an area subject to high moisture
can lead to premature wear, cuts, and breaks.
User Maintenance
Caring for Your Watch
• A dirty or rusty case or band can soil the sleeve of your clothing, cause skin
irritation, and even interfere with watch performance. Be sure to keep the case
and band clean at all times. Rust tends to form easily after the watch is exposed to
seawater and then left without cleaning.
• Sometimes a smudge like pattern may appear on the surface of a resin band. This
will not have any affect on your skin or clothing. Wipe the band with a cloth to clean
it.
• Keep a leather band clean by wiping it with a dry cloth. Both resin bands and leather
band can become worn and cracked over time when subjected to normal daily use.
• Should your band become badly cracked or worn, be sure to have it replaced with
a new one. Request band replacement from your original retailer or an authorized
CASIO Service Center. Note that you will be charged for band replacement costs,
even if your watch is still covered by its warranty.
