FAQs

How do I wind the watch?

The watch is automatic and winds itself with the movement of your wrist. However, if the watch stops, it can be manually wound by turning the crown clockwise.

How often should I have my watch serviced?

It is recommended to have your IWC watch serviced every 3-5 years by an authorized IWC dealer.

Is the watch water-resistant?

Yes, the watch is water-resistant up to 6 bar (60 metres). However, avoid exposing the watch to extreme water pressure or temperature changes, and always ensure the crown is fully screwed in.

What should I do if the watch crystal is scratched?

Minor scratches can sometimes be buffed out by a professional watchmaker. For deeper scratches, the crystal may need to be replaced.

How do I care for the leather strap?

Clean the calfskin strap with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposure to water, direct sunlight, and chemicals. Consider using leather conditioners.

Where can I get my watch serviced?

Take your watch to an authorized IWC dealer or service center for servicing.
