Special recommendations
To avoid any errors, do not perform the date setting between 22h00 and 3h00 when the date
mechanism is in action. Be careful not to confuse noon and midnight.
Never operate pushers or crown when your timepiece is under water or if it is wet and ensure
that the crown and pushers are properly pushed back or screwed down after each use.
We recommend that you have the water resistance of your timepiece checked at an authorized
Claude Bernard center every 24 months or whenever the timepiece case is opened.
Maintenance recommendations
Magnetic fields: avoid placing your watch on loudspeakers, or refrigerators, since they generate
powerful magnetic fields.
Chemical products: avoid direct contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetics etc., since they
may damage the bracelet, case or gaskets.
Cleaning: for metal bracelets and water-resistant cases, use a toothbrush with soapy water to
clean and a soft cloth for drying.
Shocks: avoid thermal and violent shocks.
What are the service intervals?
Every 24 months we advise you to do maintenance service (water resistance, movement accuracy test)
Every 5 years we advise you to do a complete maintenance service (complete movement revision,
water resistance, accuracy and functionality complete revision)
Who should I contact for a maintenance service or battery replacement?
We recommend that you contact an authorized Claude Bernard retailer, as they are the only certified specialists
equipped with the tools and apparatus required carrying out the work and the necessary checks in a professional
manner. Furthermore, only these certified specialists can guarantee that their work is carried out in accordance
with Claude Bernard’ strict quality standards. Make sure that right after each battery change the watch has been
water-resistant tested.
