and then brush it off with a soft
toothbrush. (Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it up in plastic wrap etc.) Clean it off with a soft
cloth. · Because some titan bands use pins made of stainless steel, which has outstanding strength, rust may form in
the stainless steel parts. · If rust advances, pins may poke out or drop out, and the watch case may fall off the band,
or the clasp may not open. · If a pin is poking out, personal injury may result. In such a case, refrain from using the
watch and request repair.

Notes on skin irritation and allergy
Skin irritation caused by a band may result from various factors such as allergy to metals or leathers, or skin
reactions against friction on dust or the band itself.
Notes on the length of the band
Adjust the band to allow a little clearance with your wrist to ensure proper airflow. When wearing the watch, leave
enough room to insert a finger between the band and your wrist.

· Refrain from wearing a leather band watch other than Aqua Free bands while bathing, swimming, and
when working with water even if the watch itself is water resistant enforced for daily use (10-BAR/20-BAR
water resistant).
Polyurethane band
· A polyurethane band is susceptible to discoloration from light, and may be deteriorated by solvent or atmospheric
humidity.
· Especially a translucent, white, or pale colored band easily adsorbs other colors, resulting in color smears or
discoloration.
· Wash out dirt in water and clean it off with a dry cloth. (Protect the watch body from water splashes by wrapping it
up in plastic wrap etc.)
· When the band becomes less flexible, have the band replaced with a new one. If you continue to use the band as it
is, the band may develop cracks or become brittle over time.
