Setup
Setting the Time
- Locate the crown on the right side of the watch case.
- Gently pull the crown out to the first or second click position (refer to specific watch movement instructions if available, typically the second click for time setting).
- Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position to engage the movement and ensure water resistance.
Battery Installation
This watch operates on a quartz movement powered by a single CR2 type battery. Battery installation or replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified watch technician to maintain the watch's water resistance and prevent damage.
Operating the Chronograph
The Nautica N20062G NST 500 features a chronograph movement, allowing you to measure elapsed time.
- Start: Press the upper pusher (button) to start the chronograph. The chronograph second hand will begin to move.
- Stop: Press the upper pusher again to stop the chronograph. The elapsed time will be indicated by the chronograph hands.
- Reset: After stopping the chronograph, press the lower pusher to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
Note: The watch also includes a 24-hour indicator, typically located on a sub-dial, which synchronizes with the main time display.

Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your Nautica watch, regularly wipe the case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. For the polyurethane strap, mild soap and water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.
Water Resistance
Your Nautica N20062G NST 500 watch is water resistant up to 330 feet (100 meters). This makes it suitable for snorkeling and swimming. However, it is not recommended for scuba diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water. Avoid operating the pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
Battery Replacement
When the battery needs replacement, it is highly recommended to take your watch to an authorized Nautica service center or a reputable watchmaker. This ensures that the watch is opened and sealed correctly, preserving its water resistance and preventing internal damage.
Troubleshooting
- Watch Not Running:
Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement. Refer to the "Battery Replacement" section.
- Chronograph Hands Not Resetting to Zero:
Ensure the chronograph is stopped before attempting to reset. If the issue persists, a recalibration or service may be required. Consult a professional watch technician.
- Condensation Under Crystal:
This indicates a potential breach in water resistance. Avoid further exposure to water and have the watch inspected by a professional immediately.
