FAQs

How do I replace the battery?

Battery replacement should be done by a qualified watchmaker to ensure the watch's water resistance is maintained and the movement is not damaged.

Is the watch water-resistant?

While the watch is designed to withstand daily wear, it is not recommended for swimming or diving. Always check the watch's specific water resistance rating and avoid prolonged exposure to water.

How often should I service the watch?

It is recommended to have the watch serviced every few years to ensure proper functioning. However, with a quartz movement, servicing is less frequent than with automatic watches.

Contact an authorized Longines service center or a qualified watchmaker for servicing and repairs.

What kind of strap can I use for the watch?

The watch uses a 20.80 x 32mm rectangular case with a standard strap attachment. Any compatible strap can be used.
