3. Setting the Date
Your Skagen 105LTX watch features a date window. To set the date:
- Pull the crown out to the first click position (the same position for setting the time).
- Rotate the crown counter-clockwise to advance the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
- Once the correct date is displayed, push the crown back into its original position.
4. Adjusting the Band
The titanium link band with a deployment clasp can be adjusted for a comfortable fit. This typically involves removing or adding links. It is recommended to have this adjustment performed by a professional jeweler to prevent damage to the band or clasp.

Operating Your Watch
Basic Timekeeping
Your Skagen 105LTX watch is powered by a reliable Japanese Quartz movement, providing accurate timekeeping. Once the time and date are set, the watch will operate continuously until the battery requires replacement.
Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This rating means the watch is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or any water sports where it may be subjected to high-pressure water or prolonged immersion.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
- Do not operate the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes, as this can affect water resistance seals.
Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your watch:
- Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
- For the titanium band, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
- Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.
Battery Replacement
The Quartz movement in your watch is powered by a battery. When the watch stops running, the battery needs to be replaced. It is highly recommended to have battery replacement performed by a qualified watch technician or an authorized Skagen service center. This ensures the correct battery type is used and the water resistance seal is properly re-seated.
