Owning a Vintage Watch:
Mechanical watches may not keep perfect time like a battery-powered watch. In addition, they do require service occasionally.
Since these pieces are vintage or pre-owned, please expect wear and patina from past usage and age.
If dropped, mishandled or otherwise abused, the movement or other parts of the watch can be damaged. Please handle with care.
Important note on water resistance:
At TEMPO PRIMA, we believe Vintage watches should not be worn in water, regardless of their original specifications. We do not pressure test Vintage watches, and therefore cannot guarantee water resistance. To preserve the longevity and integrity of these timepieces, we strongly recommend keeping them dry and avoiding any exposure to moisture.
We hope you enjoy this item and wear it in good health for years to come!
