March 3, 2006, Newsletter Issue #7: Tips on Keeping your watch Water Resistant

Tip of the Week

Take off your water-resistant watch prior to showering or washing dishes. Soap reduces the surface tension of water and increases the chances the water can get past the seals.
Once a year, have your watch’s water resistance checked and have any bad seals/gaskets replaced.
If you notice condensation under the crystal or on the dial of the watch, take it to a watchmaker immediately.
If your watch has a screwdown crown, make sure it is screwed down before swimming of getting it wet.
Always rinse your watch in tap water after swimming in chlorinated water or in the sea.
