Timepieces care instructions

Louis Vuitton timepieces are made in Switzerland with generational know-how that embodies the spirit of the House. Your timepiece is a living, working object that functions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, requiring the highest levels of performance. Servicing your timepiece every 3-5 years  will help keep your timepiece in its best condition.

To prolong the life of your timepiece, please take into account the following considerations:
Timepieces perform differently depending on the level of use, unique to each wearer. To avoid magnetization of your timepiece, limit contact with magnets, telephones, and security scanners. Protect your timepiece from external shock as this can severely impact the functionality. Please remove when performing strenuous physical activities and sports (lifting heavy objects, golf, swimming, etc).
For automatic timepieces, if not worn regularly, they may need to be re-wound in order to ensure optimum performance. The timepiece can be re-wound manually using the crown.
For connected watches, ensure that the mobile phone and watch are both regularly updated.

Exposure to extreme temperatures may cause slight condensation under the watch glass. This will disappear by itself and will not affect watch performance. If condensation does not go away, please contact a Louis Vuitton boutique. Avoid prolonged, full immersion and use of the crown of your timepiece in water, as this can affect its performance capabilities. Avoid contact with water if wearing a leather or canvas strap . The depth of water resistance is located on the back of your timepiece. Check your watch annually to ensure water resistance.
To clean your timepiece, simply polish with a soft, dry cloth. It is not recommended to clean leather straps as they will age with time and wear. The lifespan of a leather strap will depend on its exposure to moisture and frequency of wear. Rubber straps can be cleaned with slightly soapy water. For steel straps, a soft brush and soapy water can be used to eliminate deposits between the links.
Store your watch in the box provided at purchase or in a cool, dry place away from dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures.

For Louis Vuitton watches adorned with natural stones, it is essential to take a few simple precautions. Avoid impacts and friction with other objects to prevent any damage. After each use, store your watch in its box, away from light and humidity. Natural stones are unique in their structure and history, and their regular maintenance is crucial. Use a soft, dry cloth to maintain the stone's daily shine, and refrain from using chemical products. Avoid all contact with water, humid heat, chlorinated environments (such as the shower, hammam, or swimming pool), as well as perspiration and cosmetic products such as perfumes, lotions, or hydroalcoholic gels, as these elements can alter the surface, tint, or luster of the stone. It is normal for a natural stone to evolve slightly over time, developing a patina depending on its exposure to light, air, or your living environment; this transformation is an inherent characteristic of its nature.
