Silver And Sky Blue Kindred

At Votch, we use the best gold and rose gold plating available, but it is in the nature of plating that it can corrode and wear off in time. We strongly recommend that you keep your watch away from anything that may encourage this, such as moisturisers, lotions, oils and perfumes. We would recommend that you take your watch off whilst applying any of these to make sure contact is avoided. The gold and rose gold plating may fade over time, depending on general wear and how much you take care of your watch. If you would like your watch to be replated, many local jewellers will offer this service for you. Plating is not covered by your warranty.

Our watches have standard batteries and the average life expectancy for a battery is 12 months. Changing the battery without the correct tools can damage the metal and delicate parts in the watch. Please don’t attempt to open the case back yourself as this can invalidate the warranty. We always recommend taking your Votch to a local jewellers for battery replacements.

VEGAN LEATHER STRAPS

Our straps are made from vegan leather, to ensure no animals were harmed in the production of your Votch. We recommend you keep your strap away from oils and creams to prolong its life. Exposure to water, oil, make up and creams will stain your vegan strap. If you would like to obtain a replacement strap for your watch at any time, please contact [email protected] and we will be able to help you. We recommend that any strap replacements are handled by a local jewellers to ensure they are installed correctly. Please note straps are not covered by your warranty.

CONDENSATION

If your watch experiences a sudden change of temperature a small bit of condensation may appear under the glass (especially when held by a kettle whilst making a cuppa). Fear not, this generally will disappear after a few days if it is left alone to get better. Please don’t attempt to dry it out, as the issue should rectify itself.

Give your Votch a little clean and polish twice a week with a soft, non abrasive cloth.

Keep your Votch off any loud speakers or refirgerators. These appliances have an extremely strong magnetic field and could harm your Votch.

Always make sure the crown is fully pushed in – a tiny piece of dust can get in to the smallest of gaps and make it’s way to the mechanism.

Be kind to your Votch , daily wear can easily cause tear and scratches.

Whilst you’re not wearing your Votch keep it tucked away in the pouch that it came with.
