1.Remember that your watch should be cleaned and maintained at least every 2 years.
2.If your watch is not being worn, keep it stored in a cool dry place.
3.    Remove your watch if you are undertaking heavy/physical work.
4.Be careful to avoid abrasions as scratches may eventually affect the case and bracelet.
5.    Ensure the crown which is used to change the time and date should be properly pushed in at all times.This will prevent penetration by water, fine dust and dirt.
6.Keep your watch dust free by wiping it with a soft dry cloth.
7.    Quartz watches should be meticulously cleaned as even the smallest particle can result in damage.
8.When the watch battery runs out, change it immediately as this can affect the mechanical workings inside.
9.    When changing the time or date, never do it within 3 hours either side of midnight.At this time the watch’s regular date change is being carried out internally and it is important that it should not be interferred with.
10.Immediately get your watch serviced if you can see moisture inside the crystal.
11.Remove your watch for hot showers, baths, saunas or physical work as any moisture will damage the inner workings as well as wear down the strap.
12.Diving watches still need regular servicing, despite their rigorous water resistance.
13.    Don’t unnecessarily subject your watch to pressure or heat.
14.It is important that your watch should be rinsed under fresh water in the event that it gets exposed to salt water.
15.Your watch should always be returned to an official authorized dealer for any necessary repairs.

The Asscher cut diamond is unique that owes its name to Joseph Asscher the person that invented this particular stone way back in the year 1902.
