Using a Hegid watch
A simple wipe with a soft microfiber cloth is enough to maintain the shine of your watch. For a more thorough cleaning of the capsule and case, use warm, soapy water, ensuring the crown is fully screwed in. After contact with seawater, rinsing with fresh water is essential.

Polishing subtly alters the lines of your watch. We therefore do not recommend it outside of official maintenance services. Only our authorized service centers are authorized to perform professional polishing that respects the original design of your case.

Worn daily, your watch winds itself automatically thanks to the movements of your wrist. If you leave it at rest, its power reserve can reach up to 44 hours. To restart it, unscrew the crown and turn it clockwise about thirty times. Remember to always screw it back in tightly to ensure perfect water resistance.
More details: Tutorial
Unscrew the crown and gently pull it out. The first notch sets the date, while the second stops the second hand for precise time setting. Once you have finished making adjustments, always remember to screw the crown firmly back down against the case to ensure water resistance.

Hegid watches are able to withstand extreme conditions, so they can withstand the shocks of everyday life. Each Hegid watch is designed to last and is tested before being sold. However, we recommend that you avoid wearing your Hegid watch when engaging in activities that generate repeated sudden and powerful shocks to prevent premature wear of your watch's mechanisms.

All Hegid watches are water-resistant to a depth of at least 100 meters. To ensure the water resistance of your watch, the winding crown must be securely screwed down to hermetically seal the case. After each time, date, or other function setting, or after manually winding the watch, it is extremely important to ensure that the crown is screwed back in until it can no longer be turned. If exposed to seawater, rinse your watch thoroughly with fresh water to remove any salt and sand deposits.

The accuracy of your Hegid's movement is influenced by your lifestyle and daily use of your watch. It is possible that it has been exposed to a magnetic field, for example. In this case, a simple demagnetization process can be performed. Please contact your nearest official Hegid retailer or service center, who will be able to advise you on all the technical aspects and features of your watch.
