WATER RESISTANCE All MICHELE timepieces are designed with a minimum water-resistance rating of 5ATM (165ft/50m). See caseback for water resistance rating for traditional watches and Hybrid Smartwatches. The water resistance rating provides guidelines for appropriate water-related exposure to avoid damage to internal watch components. Please see chart for recommended usage guidelines.
TIMEPIECE CARE AND PRECAUTIONS Each MICHELE timepiece is designed and manufactured to exceed the highest of standards. Unlike most other mechanical objects, a watch operates non-stop. In order to ensure optimal performance and longevity from your timepiece, please review the simple guidelines for care and precautions of your new MICHELE timepiece. WATCH CASE AND MOVEMENT CARE Your timepiece should be cleaned with a soft cloth and water only. Do not submerge your timepiece.
Your timepiece should not be affected by magnetic fields generated by household items such as televisions or stereos, but avoidance of other strong electric fields or static electricity, which may interrupt mechanism, is suggested. It is also important to avoid extreme shock or impact. STRAP AND BRACELET CARE At MICHELE we only use first quality materials in making our straps and bracelets. All straps are specifically designed for the watches they fit.
Synthetic Straps and Metal Bracelets Rubber straps, silicon straps and stainless steel bracelets are water-resistant. They are recommended for more active lifestyles. However, please note, they may only be worn for swimming when paired with watch heads which are 10 ATM or greater. Strap and Bracelet Cleaning All MICHELE straps and bracelets should be wiped with a soft cloth. No chemicals or cleaners should be applied to straps.
HOW TO CHANGE STRAPS Push metal tab inward until the pin is released. Repeat this process in reverse to re-insert the new strap. *NOTE: The short side of the strap with the buckle should be attached to the 12 o’clock hour. The long side of the strap should be attached to the 6 o’clock hour.
HOW TO CHANGE BRACELETS Tabs Down Tabs Up Lift up both tabs. Push tabs toward each other to release pin. To re-attach, hold the bracelet against a firm surface, depress the tabs inward, and attach the head.
