Congratulations on your purchase of the Braun
Prestige Analogue watch.
Implementing new technical solutions for the
benefit of functionality has always been an
important part of the Braun design tradition. The
case of your watch is carved of one single block of
steel. This 'monocoque' construction eliminates
the need for a case-back and in turn removes the
element of potential leakage. The movement is
mounted into the case from the top before being
covered and sealed by the crystal. This allowed the
Braun designers to taper the bottom part of the
watch more elegantly and attach the band-lugs in
such a way, that would not be possible with
conventional watch construction.
The result is not only striking in appearance but
moreover the elimination of a case back gives the
watch an added structural advantage as there is a
better protection against water.
For servicing and repairs, the removal of the
access-screw on the back of the watch gives access
to the stem release-catch; after removal of the
crown and stem, pressured air is inserted to
blow-out the crystal. Thereafter, the entire
movement, together with the dial and hands are
easily removed from the top. Experienced
watchmakers with the necessary equipment should
only perform this operation and the removal of the
access-screw by any other persons without the
required expertise is highly discouraged.
