Watch Components
- Case: Lightweight titanium construction.

- Hands: Hour, minute, and second hands, all with super luminous coating.
- Crown: Located on the side of the case, used for setting the time.

- Strap: Available with a titanium bracelet or nylon strap, depending on the specific model variant.
- Case Back: Solid titanium case back.
Initial Setup
Your BERNY watch is powered by a Japanese VH31 quartz movement and comes with a battery included. To set the time:
- Pull out the crown: Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) outwards to the first position.
- Set the time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands to the desired time. The 24-hour inner track can assist in setting the correct AM/PM.
- Push in the crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position. This will start the watch movement.
Operating Your Watch
The BERNY T2596M is designed for everyday wear and sports activities. Its super luminous hands and markers ensure visibility in low-light conditions.
Water Resistance (5ATM)
Your watch has a water resistance rating of 5ATM (50 meters). This means it is suitable for:
- Daily use
- Splashes
- Rain
- Short periods of recreational swimming in shallow water
It is NOT suitable for showering with hot water, diving, snorkeling, or high-pressure water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water to maintain water resistance.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and sweat. For titanium bracelets, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying.
- Avoid Chemicals: Do not expose your watch to solvents, detergents, perfumes, or cosmetic sprays, as these can damage the case, strap, or seals.
- Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, which can affect the movement and water resistance.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, mobile phones) to prevent affecting timekeeping accuracy.
- Battery Replacement: The quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or runs erratically, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have this done by a professional watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Troubleshooting

User Tips
- Crown Position: Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting the time to prevent dust and moisture from entering the watch case and to maintain water resistance.
- Strap Adjustment: For optimal comfort and to prevent excessive wear, adjust the watch strap so it fits snugly but not too tightly on your wrist.
- Luminous Charge: To maximize the glow of the super luminous hands and markers, expose the watch to bright light (natural or artificial) for a few minutes before entering a dark environment.
