Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your timepiece, keep the crown pushed in fully to maintain its water-resistant seal. The stainless steel bracelet features a secure deployment clasp; should it require resizing, it is recommended to visit a certified Tissot retailer to avoid scratching the links. To clean, use a soft, lint-free cloth and, if necessary, mild soapy water, ensuring the crown is securely locked before rinsing. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, such as those found near speakers or large appliances, as these can affect the quartz oscillator's precision over time.
