Caring for your Swarovski Watch

All our watches are crafted in a traditional way and are therefore very delicate. Each stone is individually set, and the metal may be coated or plated. Follow these care instructions for how to clean your Swarovski watch to keep it looking its best.

How to Clean a Swarovski Watch

Follow these steps to clean your watch and maintain its brilliance:

1

Wash and dry your hands.

2

Use a lint-free cloth* and gentle circular motions to carefully polish the entire watch, including the case and dial.

3

Use the same technique on leather straps and metal bracelets.

4

If possible, clean frequently to remove any dirt or other signs of daily wear. Polishing regularly can maintain your watch’s lustrous finish.

*A lint-free cloth is a special type of cleaning cloth that does not release any fluff. You can purchase these cloths online, in hardware stores, or in some supermarkets.

More Tips for Wearing and Caring for your Swarovski Watch

1

Please read the accompanying operation instructions manual carefully to ensure you know your watch’s characteristics, including its level of water resistance.

2

Store your watch in its original packaging or a soft pouch to avoid scratching. This also helps to reduce exposure to sunlight, humidity, and excessive heat, which could fade color or shorten battery life.

3

Always remove your watch before applying body care products such as perfume, hairspray, soaps, and lotions. These liquids can damage the metal and reduce the lifetime of the plating or coating, as well as cause discoloration and loss of brilliance.

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

Stel het sieraad niet bloot aan water en andere vloeistoffen, met name zure vloeistoffen, sonische reinigers en commerciële sieradenreinigers die ammoniak of alcohol bevatten. Deze vloeistoffen kunnen zowel de toplaag als de kristallen beschadigen.

2

Vermijd stoten en schokken om de horlogekast, de kristallen en het uurwerk te beschermen tegen schade. Let erop als u armbanden aan dezelfde pols draagt als uw horloge om krassen en afsplinteringen te voorkomen.

3

Vermijd magnetische velden die invloed kunnen hebben op het uurwerk van een mechanisch horloge. Computers, smartphones en zelfs handtassen kunnen magneten bevatten.
