IMPORTANT

Magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can adversely affect the accuracy of your
watch. Also, we would recommend that you avoid placing your watch near
electronic devices that may generate large magnetic fields (radio, smart-
phone, television, computer, tablet, loudspeakers etc.).
Water resistance. Once the watch is set, to ensure perfect water resis-
tance, push the crown back to position 0. Never operate the crown under-
water.
Note: The 4 slotted screws (C) mount the bezel to the case and ensure the
water resistance of the watch. To benefit from the Bell & Ross warranty,
these screws must never be unscrewed.
*Bronze patina: over time, the case develops a patina. This patina is
caused by the bronze reacting to outside agents (air, moisture, heat, wear).
It does not alter the properties of the material, but rather attests to its
age, making each piece unique.
The patina may rub off onto your skin or onto fabric. This can be washed off
using warm soapy water.
Examples of patina or corrosion making each piece unique
MAINTENANCE
After being immersed in seawater, it is recommended to carefully rinse
off the watch and strap with fresh water. It is also recommended to have
the water resistance of your watch checked every two years. To ensure a
service that meets the brand's exacting standards, any servicing of your
watch must be carried out by the Bell & Ross service centre or a watch-
maker approved by Bell & Ross. Whenever repairs are made during the
warranty period, you must present the Bell & Ross warranty card, duly
dated and signed by the retailer at the time the watch was purchased.
We thank you for the confidence that you have shown in our
brand and we hope that your Bell & Ross watch meets with
your complete satisfaction.
