CARING FOR YOUR TIMEPIECE
Your timepiece needs care and regular maintenance to ensure its accuracy and protect its appearance.
Please Remember:
To avoid water damage, check your watch's water resistance and make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions. Most timepieces are water resistant to at least 30 meters.
Don't apply perfume or moisturisers around your wrist as the chemicals can erode the metal, leather and plastic of watchstraps.
If your timepiece has been worn in salt water and is not designed to avoid corrosion, have it checked by a watch specialist.
If water or condensation appears inside your watch face, have it checked by a watch specialist.
Protect your timepiece from heavy perspiration; remember to wipe it dry as soon as conveniently possible.
Always use a soft cloth to clean your timepiece. Be aware that with everyday use there will come a time where scratches may appear. Most cases and bracelets can be refinished to look like new however leather straps will always darken with time so take care not to get them wet or swim with them. A timepiece with a rubber strap is usually very hardwearing so the only thing you would need to do to these is wash them with mild soapy water.
If your timepiece is an automatic winding or a manual winding, it is not recommended that you wear your timepiece while you are playing any high impact sports as the impact can sometimes jar the movement.
Servicing Your Timepiece - Our timepieces are designed to last many generations so therefore outside of the warranty cover we highly recommend a regular service every three to five years to keep your timepiece in perfect working order. Watch maintenance should only be undertaken by an accredited service centre.
Estimates - The price of the service varies depending on the complexity of the timepiece. We will be happy to send your timepiece to the service center for a quotation before any work has been under.
With proper care for your timepiece you will be able to pass it down the generations.
About TAG Heuer
TAG Heuer traces its roots to the small Swiss village of St-Imier where, in 1860, a watchmaker named Edouard Heuer opened his first shop. His vision was to create remarkable timepieces that pushed the envelope of innovation and precision. The company's reputation grew, and Heuer's first patent for a chronograph mechanism in 1882 was followed by a long list of achievements: the first stopwatch accurate to 1/100 of a second, the first dashboard stopwatch for race cars, the first miniature electronic timekeeping device accurate to 1/1000th of a second, and the first automatic movement with a microrotor, to name just a few.
