• The case and band of the watch come into direct contact with the skin. Rust, dirt or
perspiration present on the watch’s body or band may cause itching or a rash on your
skin. Such problems may also occur if you have an allergy to certain metals or
leather. If you think there is something wrong, discontinue wearing the watch
immediately and consult your physician. For the metal band and case, use a brush
with neutral detergent to remove dirt and perspiration. For the leather or rubber band,
wipe off dirt with a dry cloth.
• Leather bands may become discolored by perspiration or dirt. Always keep your
leather band clean by wiping with a dry cloth.
CAUTION
Recharging Precautions
• Do not charge the watch at a high temperature (about 60°C or higher) as doing so
may cause the movement to malfunction.
Examples:
• Charging the watch too close to a light source which generates a large amount of heat
such as an incandescent lamp or halogen lamp.
* When charging under an incandescent lamp, be sure to leave 50cm or more between
the lamp and the watch to avoid exposing the watch to excessive heat.
• Charging the watch in a location where the temperature may become extremely high
such as on the dashboard of a vehicle.
Caring for your Watch
• Wipe any dirt or moisture such as perspiration from the case and crystal with a soft
cloth.
• For a metallic, plastic or rubber watchband, wash any dirt off with water. Remove the
small amounts of dirt trapped between the crevices of the metallic band with a soft
brush.
• If you will not be using your watch for an extended period of time, carefully wipe off
any perspiration, dirt or moisture and store in a proper location, avoiding locations
subject to excessively high or low temperatures and high humidity.
• Wipe off dirt from the leather or rubber band with a dry cloth.
About the Watch with Luminous Paint
The paint on the dial and hands helps you with reading the time in a dark place. The
luminous paint stores daylight or artificial light (not including incandescent lighting) and
glows in a dark place. It is free from any radioactive substance or any other material
harmful to a human body or environment.
• The light emission gradually becomes weaker as time passes.
• The duration of the light (“glow”) will vary depending on the brightness, types of and
distance from a light source, exposure time, and the amount of the paint.
• The paint may not glow and/or may dissipate quickly if exposure to light was not
sufficient.
