VI VA Black Elegance

The minimalist watch dispenses with exuberant design elements and is reduced to the essential arguments that make a good watch: attractive and unique appearance, high-quality materials and workmanship, wearing comfort and convincing technology.

WATER RESISTANCE
The VI VA Watch has been tested for water resistance up to 5 bar (5ATM). This makes it suitable for everyday use, e.g. B. Showering or washing hands. However, we advise against going bathing, showering or swimming with the watch on. Please never operate the crown under water - water could penetrate. If, despite your caution, water or condensation forms under the glass, please have your watch professionally checked immediately. Trapped water can affect the function of the watch. Contaminated water, seawater, chlorinated water or similar must be kept away from your watch.

BATTERY
Battery operated products from Art of VI VA are subject to the Directive 2002/96/EG of the European Parliament and of the Council for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and the German Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG). This device went on sale after August 13, 2005 and must not be disposed of with normal household waste. To dispose of this device, please use the appropriate take-back systems in your municipality and also observe all other regulations in this context.

CARE
Excessive friction causes scratches that take the shine off your watch. Chemicals, solvents or fats can cause discoloration or damage to the case and bracelet.

You can easily remove dust or dirt from your watch with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Please only use clear water and no soap or other cleaning agents. The cleaning cloth should be untreated (do not use silver cleaning cloths or similar!).

FOR A LONG LIFESPAN
Take your time to put on your watch and the jewelry bracelets. Accelerate the moment!

Please always carefully guide the bayonet of your ArtChain or Timecatcher to the corresponding opening in the watch case to avoid scratching the surrounding case.

Please always make sure that the Pushers are fully engaged in the bayonet mount in the case to avoid loss. If it does happen to you, please email us at service@artofviva.de

Your watch is designed to withstand the knocks of normal use. Nevertheless, we do not recommend wearing the watch for sports, showering, bathing, sauna or similar activities, as the vibrations could damage the mechanics.

Extreme temperatures shorten the life of the battery, so it is better not to expose your watch to extreme environmental conditions such as strong sunlight or high or low temperatures.

Magnetic fields can affect the movement, so keep your watch away from it. The following objects can have magnetic fields: security gates, refrigerators, computers, smartphones, loudspeakers, etc.

It is best to take off the watch before going to sleep. Just use your ArtBox. Not only does it look pretty, you can always store your jewelery wardrobe neatly and safely.

The VI VA Milanaise bracelet is easily adjustable and can be worn with a wrist circumference between 14cm and 18cm.

ADJUST THE BRACELET TO THE WRIST

1. To adjust the bracelet, please turn the bracelet inside out and open the small flap on the bottom of the clasp.
2. In the band you can see small grooves in which the clasp can snap. Now slide the fastener according to the desired size to the desired groove.
3. Then press the clasp firmly again. Done.

REMOVE HANDLE

For the first time, the pushers (at 2:00 and 4:00 o'clock) familiar from the chronograph have been fitted with a smooth-running bayonet catch and can therefore be removed. So you can attach ArtChain or TimeCatcher directly and securely to your VI VA Watch.

To remove the pushers, gently press one pusher into the case, hold it down and turn it to the left - i.e. counterclockwise. The opposite is true for VI VA right-hand watches. This will unlock the handle and allow it to be carefully removed. Always keep the pushers safe in your ArtBox!

Attaching an ArtChain or a TimeCatcher works on the same principle. To do this, insert the end piece with the bayonet into the opening provided in the watch case until you feel a slight stop. It is easiest when the small pin on the bayonet points upwards. Keep pressing it slightly and turn it to the right - i.e. clockwise - (for left-handers exactly the other way round).

Tip: First attach your unworn ArtChain to the top button (2:00). Then put on the watch and put the ArtChain around your wrist from below. Now the lower end can be attached more easily!

If you want to reattach the pushers to the watch, perform these steps in reverse order. Only this time turn to the right - i.e. clockwise - to fix it (exactly the other way around for left-handed watches). Please always check that all fasteners are really tight!
