User manual TAG HEUER AQUARACER CALIBRE S REGATTA

[. . . ] The materials we use give our watches exceptional strength, even under very demanding conditions. Before being launched on the market, each new product is submitted to more than 60 tests for precision and quality. At the same time, your TAG Heuer watch has been individually tested to guarantee that it is water resistant and functions perfectly. With its unique, modern design your new TAG Heuer chronograph combines tradition and technical achievement. [. . . ] For frequent or prolonged use in water we recommend a steel and/or gold bracelet. Remember your chronograph is only waterproof if the crown is in position 0. If the temperature changes suddenly, a slight condensation may appear under the crystal of your chronograph. This will soon disappear and will not affect the functioning of your watch. If the condensation does not disappear, please see your official TAG Heuer dealer. We recommend that you have the water-resistance of your watch checked once a year by your TAG Heuer dealer, who will replace the seals if necessary. Your chronograph is fitted with a battery that lasts for approximately two years. However, you may need to replace it before you have owned the watch for two years because it is installed before it leaves the factory. When your chronograph is not in use, we recommend selecting CHRONO mode by simply pressing the crown. Some of our watches include parts that have been plated with a fine layer of yellow gold. This plating is sensitive to friction on hard or rough surfaces and may show wear over time. Under normal conditions of use, the gold plating of your watch will give you complete satisfaction. Our leather straps are manufactured from top-quality skins and treated to resist humidity. However, leather is a sensitive material and it is best to limit its use in water. To care for your leather strap, we recommend that you clean it with a soft, dry, cotton cloth and do not use any abrasive cleaning products. It is normal for the leather to darken slightly over time. We recommend cleaning a metal bracelet with soap and soft water each month. For extra security, our steel and/or gold bracelets are fitted with a double safety clasp. 1 Hands Hours Note: during the countdown in REGATTA mode, the hour hand remains underneath the minute hand.
