 Care of Your Watch

The watch itself should be cleaned with a soft cloth and water only (while crown is screwed down) . Avoid getting leather bands wet. Metal bracelets should be cleaned with a soft brush and warm soapy water. Then rinsed with clean water and dried with a soft cloth.
If you have not worn your watch for 24 hours or more, it should be wound about 30 times to replenish its power reserve. Do not adjust the date of your watch between 8pm-4am. Changing the date the date between these time could damage gears in your watch.  Always set your time by turning hands clockwise (turning crown towards you)  Turning the hands counter clockwise could damage your movement. Damages resulting from these actions are not covered under warranty.

Normal sports activities will not affect the watch’s integrity. However, any type of violent shock may upset the movement and the watch’s ability to keep correct time.

Instructions For Use

Sizing

To size your watch use included screwdriver (if included with your package purchase) to size if your watch has screws in the links.  For models with push pins remove pins in directions of arrows on the inside of the bracelet (using the enclosed tool  if your purchased package includes one).  If you have not sized a watch before or do not feel comfortable sizing it yourself we recommend you take it to a  professional.  Be especially careful with the push pins as you can slip and stab yourself in the hand or fingers.  Aquacy Watches is not responsible for injury should you choose to size your own watch.
