Operating the Watch
Chronograph Function
- The small sub-dial at the 12 o'clock position tracks seconds for the chronograph (1 lap = 1 minute).
- The small sub-dial at the 9 o'clock position tracks minutes for the chronograph (1 lap = 1 hour).
Moon Phase / 24-Hour Indicator
The sub-dial at the 6 o'clock position functions as a lunar hour hand, completing a 24-hour loop. It visually indicates day and night, often depicted with sun and moon symbols.
Luminous Display
The hands and hour markers of the watch are treated with a luminous material, allowing for readability in low-light conditions after exposure to light.
Maintenance
Water Resistance
Your CHENXI 976 watch is 3 ATM (30 meters) water resistant. This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes, sweat, and light rain. However, it is NOT suitable for showering, swimming, diving, or any activities involving hot water or steam. Never operate the crown or buttons while the watch is wet.
Cleaning and Care
- Wipe the watch case and glass with a soft, dry cloth regularly to remove dust and smudges.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or strong magnetic fields.
- The leather strap should be kept dry and away from excessive moisture to prevent damage and prolong its lifespan.
Troubleshooting
- Watch not keeping accurate time: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement.
- Chronograph buttons not responding: Verify that the chronograph is not currently running before attempting to reset. If the buttons feel stuck, avoid forcing them.
- Date not changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle, as the date typically changes around midnight.
User Tips
- The chronograph function on this watch is fully operational, allowing for precise timing.
- The watch uses a battery-powered quartz movement, despite the 'AUTOMATIC' text on the dial which is a design element.
- Be aware that actual product colors and sizes may vary slightly from images due to photography and manual measurement.
- If you desire a gift box, please ensure you select the option that includes one during purchase, as the standard package does not include a gift box.
