RUBBER STRAP
The lifespan of a rubber strap depends on how of-
ten it is worn and under what conditions. To con-
serve your rubber strap for as long as possible, we
recommend you keep it away from oils and cos-
metics and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Furthermore, you may clean your rubber strap
with soapy water.
We recommend you have your rubber strap changed
by a Baume & Mercier agent. The agent will be able
to offer you an array of rubber straps perfectly suit-
ed to your watch.
WATER-RESISTANCE
Baume & Mercier watches are water-resistant up
to at least 30 meters. If a model’s water-resistance
goes beyond 30 meters, the depth is indicated on the
back of the case.
When a watch is water-resistant its movement is
protected from dust, humidity and any risk of dam-
age caused by immersion.
The water-resistance of a watch comes from its
joints. Because these joints are exposed to different
types of external stress (cosmetics, perspiration,
temperature changes), your watch may become
less water-resistant with time.
As a consequence, we recommend you have your
watch checked every 12 months to guarantee it re-
mains fully water-resistant.
IMPORTANT:
When your watch is submerged in water, do
not pull on the crown or press any of the push-
buttons to adjust the date, the hour or any oth-
er function because water may enter the case.
If you notice any condensation inside your watch,
you must take it immediately to a Baume & Mer-
cier After-sales Service Counter or an approved
Baume & Mercier agent.
CHEMICALS
Avoid direct contact with any solvents, detergents,
perfumes or cosmetic products which may damage
the bracelet, the case or the joints.
