Magno Moon Swiss Men's Watch J4.272.L

The name Jowissa is a combination of the surname and lastname of the company founder Josef Wyss. He founded Jowissa in the village of Bettlach, Switzerland in 1951. Jowissa has been active and in business without interruption since then.

The expected battery life is 2 to 4 years depending on external factors like heat and cold. Jowissa uses standard silver oxide battery cells in combination with high quality and low energy consuming Swiss quartz movements.

Leather bands should not be washed with water. For cleaning your strap refer to your local watch dealer to get a special leather cleaning product.

A Jowissa watch is tested for 3 to 20 ATM water resistance depending on the collection.
3 ATM: Watches tested for 3 ATM should not be worn when bathing or showering. They are build to withstand light rain, sweat and brief water contact.
5 ATM: Watches tested for 5 ATM are made to withstand rain, sweat and short swims.
10 ATM: Short dives, swim and other water sports are ok
20 ATM: Deep Dives, swims and other water sports are ok.

YES

The moon-phase indication is a device serving to visualize on the watch dial the various appearances adopted by the Earth's satellite in the course of a lunar cycle: it may be waxing, full, waning or entirely hidden by the shadow of the Earth - and thus referred to as a new moon.

These different phases are traditionally represented by a mobile disk bearing two diametrically opposite depictions of the Moon alternately appearing through an aperture. The latter is cut out so as to provide a visual simulation of the Moon's waning and waxing episodes. As soon as the first interpretation vanishes, the second instantly comes on the scene. Moon phases may also be indicated by means of a hand pointing to various symbols, or by a three-dimensional sphere spinning on its axis, and of which one half is light-colored while the other is dark.

The mechanical difficulty of moon phases lies in the unusual interval between two full moons. By the 20th century, this complication had become essentially a romantic feature.

Jowissa's croco style straps are crafted from fine calf leather. These straps are designed to emulate the elegant appearance of genuine crocodile leather through a special embossing process that creates the distinctive crocodile pattern.

This choice of high-quality calf leather allows us to offer straps that are both aesthetically appealing and durable, while also adhering to ethical and sustainable practices. The embossed crocodile pattern provides the desired sophisticated look and texture.

A watch with a water resistance rating of 5 ATM (atmospheres) is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and showering. According to ISO standard 22810, this level of water resistance signifies that the watch can withstand static pressure equivalent to submersion at a depth of 50 meters.

While a 5 ATM rating offers more protection than a 3 ATM rating, it is important to understand the limitations for swimming. The dynamic forces exerted during swimming, such as the movement of your arms through the water and the impact of diving, can create pressure that exceeds the static test conditions.

Therefore, while your Jowissa watch with a 5 ATM rating can tolerate brief immersion and splashes, we generally advise against wearing it for prolonged swimming or diving activities. Consistent exposure to these conditions may compromise the water-resistant seals and potentially lead to water damage which would not be covered under the warranty.

For regular swimming or more intensive water activities, we recommend considering Jowissa models with a higher water resistance rating, typically 10 ATM or more. These models are specifically designed and tested to withstand greater water pressure and are more suitable for such use. Please refer to the technical specifications of each Jowissa watch on our website for detailed information on their water resistance level.

Mineral crystal, which is used in most Jowissa watches, is a type of glass that's been treated to make it a bit tougher than regular glass. Think of the glass in a smart phone screen – mineral crystal is similar to that.

Because it's treated, mineral crystal is more resistant to scratches than a plain glass window. It can handle everyday wear and tear pretty well, like little bumps and rubs against things.

However, it's not as hard as some other materials, like sapphire crystal. This means that if your watch rubs against something really hard, like certain types of rock or even another piece of glass with a higher hardness, it could potentially get a scratch.

Here's the main idea:
- Mineral crystal is more scratch-resistant than regular glass.
- It can handle most of the little bumps and scrapes you might have during the day.
- However, it's not completely scratch-proof, and harder materials can still scratch it.

So, while your Jowissa watch with a mineral crystal is pretty durable for everyday use, it's still a good idea to be a little careful with it to keep it looking its best!

Most of our Jowissa watch crystals are made with mineral glass. Think of it like the glass in your windows, but a bit tougher. It can handle everyday wear and tear pretty well and is more scratch resistant than regular plastic.

However, just like anything made of glass, it's not completely scratch-proof. Really hard or sharp things could potentially leave a mark.

For some of our more premium collections, we also use sapphire crystal. Sapphire is very tough! It's much harder than mineral glass and offers even better scratch resistance. You'll usually find this mentioned in the specific watch description if it has a sapphire crystal.

Let's summarize:
Mineral glass (most Jowissa watches): Good scratch resistance for daily use.
Sapphire crystal (some premium models): Excellent scratch resistance, very durable.

To keep your Jowissa Watch looking its best, it's still a good idea to be mindful of bumps and scrapes against hard surfaces.
