Affected by nearby magnetism, a watch may temporarily gain or lose time or stop operating.
Even when the watch gains or loses time due to magnetic influence, the hand positions are automatically adjusted by the “automatic hand position adjustment function.”
Adjusting the preliminary position of the hour, minute, second, and indicator hands (Automatic hand position adjustment function)
This watch has magnetic resistance which complies with ISO “Magnetic resistant watches.”
CAUTION
Keep the watch more than 5 cm away from magnetic products.
If the watch becomes magnetized and its accuracy deteriorates to an extent exceeding the specified rate under normal use, the watch needs to be demagnetized. In this case, you will be charged for demagnetization and accuracy readjustment even if it happens within the guarantee period.
The reason why a watch is affected by magnetism
The built-in motor is provided with a magnet, which may be influenced by a strong external magnetic field.
