Avoid immersing or soaking the case or crystal portion of the watch, regardless of water-resistance rating.

This included a general review of the habitat and its conservation and summary descriptions of the status of the sand dunes in most of the countries in Europe. This paper sets out to provide an update of the sand dune resource in Europe as a basis for revising the inventory, which will be published at a later date if support (financial and information) can be obtained. Keywords: Sand dune; Survey; Inventory; Europe. Introduction Almost the first European dune conference was held in Leiden, The Netherlands, in 1987. Following this conference one of the first tasks suggested by the newly established European Union for Dune Conservation [EUDC] was to produce an inventory of coastal dunes throughout Europe (Fig. 1). This was published by the UK Joint Nature Conservation Committee and the European Union for Coastal Conservation (EUCC an expanded EUDC) with funding from the Department of Nature Conservation, Environmental Protection and Wildlife Management in the Dutch Ministry. It was presented at the European Coastal Conservation Conference organized by the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries held in Holland in November 1991.
