RIP CURL WATCH CARE PROCEDURES AND WARRANTY INFORMATION:

WATERPROOF TESTED A.T.S.TIDE & SURF WATCHES

Rip Curl watches are tested to the highest industry standards with the best Swiss pressure testing equipment and are purpose built for SURFING!
Note: All Industry standards watch testing is done to an overpressure situation in a static laboratory environment and does not signify a diving depth. See chart below for recommended usages.

Due to the fact that surfing is in no way a static sport, there are influences that can effect a watch's ability to keep water out. Eg. Frequent temperature changes, salt water and big wipeouts can diminish the longevity of the watches rubber seals.

To keep your watch in peak condition for surfing we recommend that you have your watch seals replaced and fully tested at the Rip Curl Watch Service Centre every 24 months.

Rip Curl watches are assembled and tested to exacting Swiss Quality Standards in a new state of the art manufacturing facility. Our guarantee of quality and service is a product of the Search...

RIP CURL WATCH CARE PROCEDURES

1. Only use your watch for approved sports as detailed on page above.
2. Do not operate buttons under water.

4. Do not clean watch with spray cleaners, thinners or other such volatile agents.
5. Do not wear leather bands in water.
6. Never try to open the watch. Have batteries changed by Rip Curl technicians.
7. Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures.

9. Even though Rip Curl watches are produced to high standards, you should avoid dropping the watch and avoid rough treatment.
10. Avoid exposing the watch to gasoline, cleaning solvents, aerosol sprays and paint etc. as chemical reactions with such agents will destroy the watch's seals, case and finish.

Here are three things that'll make your future "after-sale watch service" life super easy...
1. Keep your receipt as proof of purchase in case you have a warranty claim.
2. Read through the warranty conditions carefully.
3. Be aware that your warranty is void if the watch is opened by anyone other than the Rip Curl service centre.

All repairs done by the Rip Curl Service Centre include resealing, pressure testing and a 12 month warranty on parts and workmanship. Australian prices indicated are subject to change without notice.

RIP CURL WATCHES 5 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

Please remember that your Rip Curl Watch Warranty is void if the watch is opened by anyone other than the Rip Curl Service Centre. All warranty claims MUST be sent with a purchase receipt clearly showing the purchase date. The warranty book is not proof of purchase without a purchase receipt. Eg. A purchase receipt is the cash register receipt or credit card statement clearly showing the purchase. Note: Rip Curl reserves the right to repair or replace, with an equivalent style, any warranty watch.

Five years on Movements from the date of purchase.
Note: A Movement is the part inside the Watch that makes it work, but it does not include the Crown, sometimes called the Winder.

Two years on Waterproof from the date of purchase. Note: We recommend all Watches be serviced, resealed and tested for water proofness every two years as heat, temperature changes, salt and other elements will diminish waterproofness over time. Have this done at the Rip Curl Watch Service Centre and we will then issue a new warranty for another two years.

One year on batteries from the date of purchase.
Note: Rip Curl's Service Centre can replace all batteries and at the same time will reseal and test the watch functions and waterproofness. We will then issue a new one year warranty on the new battery.

Not covered by any warranty is the glass, band and case. Also not covered is damage caused by general wear and tear or any accidental damage.
