Kuoe OLD SMITH 90-002 35mm Version Bronze Case Ivory Dial No-Date
The case of this model is made of bronze. As the watch is worn, oxidization causes the bronze to gradually discolor and develop a patina over time. The degree of oxidization varies depending on the frequency of wear and the environment it is worn in, so the aging process is unique to your individual circumstances. Due to the nature of the bronze material, there may be some oxidization upon delivery. Please be aware of this in advance. No returns will be accepted for this discoloration.

To keep your watch performing at its best, we recommend avoiding strong impacts, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to moisture unless your watch is designed for water activities. After exposure to salt water, rinse the watch gently with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth.
For mechanical watches, regular wear helps keep the movement running smoothly. If the watch is not worn often, manual winding may be needed depending on the model. Quartz watches may require battery replacement over time.
Leather straps should be kept away from excessive water and humidity to preserve their appearance and longevity.
Because care recommendations can vary by brand and model, please refer to the manufacturer manual included with your watch for detailed operating instructions, water resistance guidelines, and service intervals.
