FAQ

What is the meaning of the brand name JOWISSA?
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.
How long will the battery of my watch last?
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.
Can I wash my leather band with water?
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.
Can I adjust the length of my steel or ceramic bracelet?
Yes, the length of our steel and ceramic bracelets can be adjusted to fit an individual wrist size. When you order with jowissa.com we shorten the bracelet for you free of charge. Optionally your local watch dealer may also offer the bracelet adjustment as a service.
Is my watch water resistant?
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.
Can I exchange my watch band?
YES
What is a Chronograph?
In modern parlance, the word 'chronograph' is used to refer to a timepiece which, along with telling the time, serves to measure short times using at least one additional hand. The latter can be started, stopped and reset to zero without disturbing the smooth running of the movement, by means of a control system, generally composed of pushbuttons. If the chronograph function is not associated with a watch as such, the instrument is simply referred to as a timer (or sometimes a stopwatch).

Technically speaking, the chronograph mechanism can be either built into the watch movement, or mounted on the latter in the form of an add-on module. A significant step was taken in 1816, when Parisian horologist Louis Moinet developed what he called a compteur de tierces.
Can I leave my chronograph running all the time?
While possible, it is generally not recommended for battery-powered quartz watches. Leaving the chronograph function running continuously drains the battery significantly faster than standard timekeeping. To preserve battery life, we suggest stopping and resetting the chronograph hands to zero when you are not actively timing an event.
Is a Chronograph different from a Chronometer?
Yes, these terms are often confused but mean different things. A Chronograph is a watch with a built-in stopwatch function (buttons to start, stop, and reset). A Chronometer is a specific certification given to a high-precision watch movement (usually mechanical) that has passed rigorous accuracy tests by COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute). A watch can be both, but "Chronograph" refers to the function, while "Chronometer" refers to the accuracy rating.
