FAQs

What is the water resistance of the Pontos S Diver?

While the description emphasizes its suitability for diving, specific water resistance depth is not provided. Please refer to the product's official specifications or contact customer support for exact details.

How do I manually wind the watch?

To manually wind the watch, unscrew the crown (if it's a screw-down crown) and gently turn it clockwise. Approximately 30-40 turns should be sufficient to power the watch for a full day.

What is the typical accuracy of a Maurice Lacroix mechanical watch?

Mechanical watches, including Maurice Lacroix timepieces, typically have a daily variation rate. For a new watch, a deviation of +/- 10 to 30 seconds per day can be considered within normal parameters, though many perform much better.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

Given its 'Diver' designation and typical Swiss watchmaking standards for such models, it is generally safe to wear while swimming. However, always confirm the specific water resistance rating for your model.

How often should the watch be serviced?

It is recommended to have your Maurice Lacroix watch serviced every 3 to 5 years by an authorized service center to ensure its optimal performance and longevity.

What does 'accessible luxury' mean for this timepiece?

Accessible luxury refers to high-quality craftsmanship, premium materials, and sophisticated design typically found in high-end watches, offered at a more attainable price point compared to ultra-luxury brands.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped working

Ensure the watch is wound. If it's an automatic, wear it regularly or manually wind it by rotating the crown (usually 30-40 turns). If the issue persists, it may require servicing.

Timekeeping inaccuracy

Minor deviations are normal for mechanical watches. If significant, magnets or impacts could be a cause. Contact an authorized service center for regulation.

Strap/bracelet discomfort

Adjust the clasp for a comfortable fit. Ensure the buckle is secured properly. Consider alternative strap options if provided or available.

Condensation under the crystal

This could indicate a seal failure, especially if exposed to rapid temperature changes. Remove the watch from moisture and seek immediate professional inspection and servicing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

As a luxury timepiece, the Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver 42mm requires minimal setup, primarily involving winding the watch and setting the time and date. Compatibility is not a concern as it is a self-contained mechanical watch. For care, it is recommended to avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemicals. Clean the watch regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For the leather strap variants, avoid direct contact with water and lotions. For stainless steel bracelets, mild soap and water can be used, followed by thorough drying. Professional servicing by authorized Maurice Lacroix technicians is advised every 3-5 years to maintain optimal performance.
