Comment nettoyer une montre Swarovski

Suivez ces étapes pour nettoyer votre montre et préserver sa brillance :

1

Lavez et séchez vos mains.

2

À l’aide d’un chiffon doux non pelucheux*, effectuez de légers cercles pour lustrer avec soin l’ensemble de la montre, y compris le boîtier et le cadran.

3

Utilisez la même technique pour les bracelets en cuir ou en métal.

4

Essayez de les nettoyer régulièrement pour éliminer les saletés et autres signes d’usure quotidienne. Le nettoyage régulier de votre montre préserve son éclat.

* Un chiffon doux non pelucheux est un tissu spécial pour le nettoyage. Vous pouvez l’acheter en ligne, en quincaillerie ou dans certains supermarchés.

Autres conseils pour le port et l’entretien de votre montre Swarovski

1

Veuillez lire attentivement la notice de votre montre pour l’utiliser et l’entretenir correctement, sans oublier de prendre connaissance de son niveau d’étanchéité.

2

Conservez votre montre dans son étui d’origine ou dans une pochette en tissu doux pour éviter les rayures. Cela permet également de réduire l’exposition à la lumière du soleil, à l’humidité et à une chaleur excessive, qui pourraient altérer les couleurs ou réduire la durée de vie des piles.

3

Retirez toujours votre montre avant d’appliquer des produits d’hygiène et beauté comme du parfum, de la laque pour cheveux, du savon ou de la lotion. Ces produits peuvent endommager les matériaux et réduire leur durée de vie, mais aussi les décolorer et perdre de leur brillance.

4

Make sure to replace weak or dead batteries as soon as possible, as they may leak fluids that can damage the watch’s movement. To replace the battery, please entrust your watch to an authorized Swarovski retailer that sells Swarovski watches, a watchmaker, or a jeweler.

5

Put on your watch last when dressing and take it off first when undressing. We also recommend that you do not wear your Swarovski watch in bed or when exercising.

Things to Avoid

1

Avoid contact with water and other fluids – especially acidic liquids, sonic cleaners, and commercial jewelry cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol. These types of liquid can damage both the plating or coating and the crystals.

2

Avoid impacts and shocks to protect the case, crystals, and movement from damage. Take care to avoid scratches and chips if wearing your watch together with bracelets on the same wrist.

3

Avoid magnetic fields, which can affect the timekeeping performance of a mechanical watch. Computers, smartphones, and even handbags can contain magnets.

Replacement Straps

Swarovski watches are intended to be worn and enjoyed every day. With such regular wear, you may want to replace your watch strap on occasion. Replacement straps are available to purchase online and can also be ordered from most authorized Swarovski retailers.

Shop watch straps

Straps can be changed without tools or professional assistance

1

Gently pull the spring clip and lift the strap out.

2

Place one end of the new strap into the slot.

3

Gently pull the spring clip once again and insert the other end into the remaining slot.

4

Release the spring clip until it clicks. Check by carefully pulling the strap to make sure it is attached properly.
