Your Bulova 98B316 watch is water-resistant to 300 meters (1000 feet). This rating indicates it is suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports, but not for saturation diving.

Önemli Önlemler:

• Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down against the case before any contact with water.
• Do not operate the pushers or crown while the watch is submerged in water, as this can compromise the water resistance.
• Avoid exposing the watch to sudden temperature changes, such as moving from a hot sauna to cold water, as this can affect seals.
• Tuzlu suya maruz kaldıktan sonra saati bol tatlı suyla iyice durulayın ve yumuşak bir bezle kurulayın.

Proper care will ensure the longevity and performance of your Bulova watch.

• Kimyasallardan Kaçının: Do not expose the watch to solvents, detergents, perfumes, or cosmetic sprays, as these can damage the case, crystal, or seals.
• Sıcaklık: Avoid extreme temperatures and sudden temperature changes.
• Darbeler: Saatinizi şiddetli darbelere ve sarsıntılara karşı koruyun.

Pil Değişimi:

The watch is powered by a Lithium Ion battery. When the battery needs replacement, it is highly recommended to take your watch to an authorized Bulova service center or a qualified watchmaker.
