Maintenance
- Water Resistance: The watch is rated 5ATM (50 meters) water resistant. This means it can withstand splashes, rain, handwashing, face washing, and cold water bathing. Do NOT press any buttons while the watch is wet or submerged. Avoid hot water, steam, or prolonged submersion, as this can compromise the seals.
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For silicone straps, mild soap and water can be used, then rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Battery: The watch includes a battery. When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have this done by a professional watch repair service to ensure water resistance is maintained.
- Storage: When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
- Digital Display Not Working: Check if the battery needs replacement. If the issue persists after battery replacement, contact support.
- Analog Hands Not Moving: Ensure the crown is pushed in completely. If the hands are still not moving, the battery might be low, or there could be a mechanical issue.
- Water Inside the Watch: If moisture appears inside the watch, immediately stop using it and seek professional repair. This indicates a compromised seal.
- Buttons Not Responding: Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable) or that it is not wet. If buttons are stuck, do not force them.
User Tips
- Strap Replacement: If you wish to replace the silicone strap, ensure you purchase a compatible strap with the correct lug width (24mm) to maintain the watch's aesthetic and secure fit.
- Time Synchronization: For best accuracy, periodically check and synchronize both the analog and digital times, especially after battery changes or significant impacts.
