Preserving Your OMEGA

Here’s some aftercare tips to ensure that your OMEGA watch maintains its high standard of performance, reliability and appearance.

• Avoid direct contact with chemical products like solvents, detergents, perfumes, cosmetic products etc., as they may damage the bracelet, the case or the gaskets.
• To clean metal bracelets and water resistant cases, use a toothbrush with soapy tap water and a soft cloth for drying.
• For leather straps, avoid water, perspiration, damp, grease, perfume, cosmetics or chemicals and avoid excessive exposure to the sun.
• Unless your OMEGA is equipped with a Master Co-Axial Chronometer movement, resistant to magnetic fields greater than 1.5 tesla (15,000 gauss), OMEGA recommend that you avoid exposing it to powerful magnetic fields such as loudspeakers, refrigerators, certain handbag clasps, iPad cases etc.
• Make sure your screw-in-crown is carefully screwed in to ensure no water enters the mechanism.
• Although current OMEGA watches are shock-resistant up to 5000g, heavy shocks such as accidental knocks should be avoided.
• After swimming in the sea, always rinse your watch with warm tap water afterwards.
• Avoid extreme temperatures like above 60C or below 0C, or extreme temperature changes.
