. Recommendations
Like all micro-mechanical precision instruments, your
Hamilton watch should be checked at least once
every two years. Entrust your watch to an authorized
Hamilton repair center or to any other professional
watch service.
To keep your watch water-resistant, make sure that
its sealing features are tested at every check-up.
Do not move the crown when you are in water.
Rinse o your watch with fresh water after any immer-
sion in seawater.
Dry your watch whenever it gets wet.
Have your watch checked for water-resistance by an
authorized Hamilton retailer or by any other profes-
sional watch service each time the case is opened.
. Water-resistance
The water-resistance of your watch is indicated on the
case back.

Saxon countries:

ter are equivalent to the degree of overpressure applied
during the tests according to the ISO  standard.
. Leather straps
Hamilton recommends that you follow the steps below
in order to preserve the condition of your leather strap
for as long as possible:
Avoid contact with water and dampness to prevent
discoloration and deformation.
Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight to prevent the
color from fading.
Do not forget that leather is permeable ! Therefore
avoid contact with greasy substances and cosmetic
products.
If you have a problem with your leather strap, please
contact your nearest Hamilton retailer.
. Batteries
Watch batteries can last between two and ve years,
depending on the watch type, its size and the amount
of energy used by the various functions. If the seconds
hand starts to move in -second steps, the battery
should be changed by your Hamilton agent.
Replacing the battery
We recommend that you contact an approved Hamilton
service center or authorized Hamilton retailer, as they
are equipped with the tools and apparatus required to
carry out the work and the necessary checks in a profes-
sional manner. A worn-out battery should be replaced
immediately in order to reduce the risk of leakage and
consequent damage to the movement.
Battery type
Button-type zinc-silver oxide primary battery cell.
. Magnetic elds
To prevent malfunctions of your watch avoid coming
into contact with magnetic elds such as those of mag-
nets, loudspeakers, cell phones, refrigerators, etc.
