Quick-change correction for date

  2. Turn the crown until the current time is displayed (remember the 24-hour cycle).
  3. Push the crown back into position 1. 


Water resistance

Your Gerard McCabe watch is water resistant up to 5 ATM. 
It is protected in everyday life, bathing, accidental splashes, short swimming and car washing - it is resistant against perspiration, water vapour and rain drops. The water resistance is guaranteed by several seals but cannot be considered as permanent protection. They are subject to a natural aging process and need to be replaced after a certain time of use. However, under certain circumstances, the integrity of the moisture resistance may become compromised within a shorter period of time. Furthermore, impacts to the crown can influence the water resistance as well. A perfect long-term protection is giver by annual water resistance tests.

 

Band Care

Your Gerard McCabe leather band needs special care. Heavy perspiration can damage your leather strap. Any moisture should be blotted with a soft dry cloth and allowed to dry naturally. To clean your leather strap use a dampened soft cloth and mild soap. On occasion you should wipe the inside of the strap with a cloth dampened in alcohol. 



Warranty Conditions

Your Gerard McCabe watch is covered by a 3 year guarantee against manufacturing defects from the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover damage to bands or glass. Nor does it cover damage, accidental or otherwise, caused by contact with water or customer misuse. Any damage caused by repairs or alterations by unauthorised technicians may void your warranty.
