Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This rating means the watch is generally suitable for swimming and snorkeling. It is not recommended for scuba diving or high-impact water sports where water pressure may exceed the watch's rating. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water.

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning

To clean your watch, use a soft, damp cloth. For the fabric strap, mild soap and water can be used, ensuring it is thoroughly rinsed and air-dried. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by one Lithium Metal battery (included). When the watch stops running, it indicates the battery needs replacement. Battery replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure water resistance is maintained.

Strap Care

The durable fabric strap is designed for comfort and longevity. Regularly inspect the strap for wear and tear. If replacement is needed, ensure it is compatible with the watch's lug width (18mm).

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Date not changing: Manually adjust the date using the quick-date feature as described in the "Setting the Date" section. Ensure the time is set correctly for AM/PM to avoid the date changing at noon.
• Indiglo not illuminating: Press and hold the crown firmly. If it still does not light up, the battery may be low or depleted.
