Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup: Upon receiving your U-Boat Classico watch, it is recommended to wind the crown fully if the watch has stopped. Gently pull the crown out to the first position to set the date and time. For full functionality, ensure the crown is pushed back in securely.
Strap Care: The handcrafted leather strap, made from naturally aged leather, requires gentle care. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, and harsh chemicals. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use products specifically designed for genuine leather.
Movement Care: As an automatic watch, the U-Boat Classico is powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist. Ensure you wear the watch regularly or wind it manually if it stops for an extended period to maintain its accuracy. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields.
Water Resistance: While rated for 100 meters (10 ATM), this is primarily for protection against splashes and accidental submersion. It is not recommended for diving or prolonged underwater activities. Always ensure the crown is screwed down or pushed in completely before exposure to water.
