Initial Setup
Before using your watch, you may need to set the time and date. The watch features both analog hands and a digital display.
Setting Digital Time and Date:
- In normal time display mode, press the MODE button repeatedly to cycle through modes until you reach the time setting mode (usually indicated by flashing digits).
- Use the RESET button to select the digit you wish to adjust (e.g., hours, minutes, year, month, day).
- Use the START button to increase the selected value.
- Continue pressing MODE to move to the next setting parameter (e.g., 12/24 hour format, year, month, day).
- Once all settings are adjusted, press the MODE button again to exit the setting mode and return to normal time display.
Setting Analog Time:
The analog hands are typically synchronized with the digital time. If they are out of sync, you may need to adjust them manually. Consult the video demonstration for a visual guide.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying.
- Water Resistance: While water-resistant to 50m, avoid pressing buttons underwater. Do not expose the watch to hot water or steam, as this can compromise the water seals.
- Battery: The watch uses an original Japanese MAXELL battery designed for long endurance. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional to ensure water resistance is maintained.
- Storage: Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Impact: Although shock-resistant, avoid unnecessary impacts or drops to prolong the life of the watch.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Digital display is blank or dim. | Low battery. | Replace the battery. |
| Time/Date is incorrect. | Not set correctly or reset accidentally. | Follow the "Setting Digital Time and Date" instructions in the Setup section. |
| Analog hands do not match digital time. | Analog hands need synchronization. | Refer to the video demonstration or specific instructions for analog hand adjustment (if available, usually involves pulling out a crown or a specific button combination). |
| Water inside the watch. | Buttons pressed underwater, exposure to hot water/steam, or damaged seal. | Stop using the watch immediately and take it to a professional for inspection and repair. Avoid hot water/steam. |
User Tips
- Clear Time Setting: Some users find the initial time setting confusing. Take your time and follow the steps carefully, using the MODE button to cycle through settings and RESET/START to adjust. The video demonstration can be very helpful for visual learners.
- Outdoor Durability: The watch is designed to be shock-resistant and water-resistant up to 50 meters, making it ideal for various outdoor activities and sports.
- Backlight Use: The backlight is a convenient feature for checking the time in the dark. Use it sparingly to conserve battery life, though the watch's low power consumption battery is quite efficient.
