3. Setup and Time Setting
Follow these steps to set the time on your watch:
- Pull out the Crown: Gently pull the crown (located on the right side of the watch case) out to the first click position. The second hand will stop.
- Set the Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands to the desired time. Ensure the 24-hour sub-dial also reflects the correct AM/PM period.
- Push in the Crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into its normal operating position. The second hand will resume movement.

The chronograph function allows you to measure elapsed time. It operates independently of the main time display.
- Start Measurement: Press Pusher A (top pusher) to start the chronograph. The chronograph second hand will begin to move.
- Stop Measurement: Press Pusher A again to stop the chronograph. The chronograph second and minute hands will stop, indicating the elapsed time.
- Reset Chronograph: After stopping the chronograph, press Pusher B (bottom pusher) to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
- Intermediate (Split) Time Measurement: This model may not support split time. If your model does, consult the specific instructions provided with the watch packaging.
5. Maintenance
Proper care ensures the longevity and appearance of your watch.
Cleaning
- Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth.
- For the leather strap, avoid prolonged exposure to water, direct sunlight, and harsh chemicals. Clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Water Resistance
This watch has a water resistance depth of 30 meters (3 ATM). This rating means the watch is resistant to splashes and brief immersion in water, such as rain or hand washing. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by one Lithium Metal battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to move erratically (e.g., skipping seconds), the battery may need replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to avoid damage to the movement and to maintain water resistance.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your watch, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Watch not running | Depleted battery | Replace battery by a professional. |
| Incorrect time display | Time not set correctly or crown pulled out | Set the time as per Section 3. Ensure crown is fully pushed in. |
| Chronograph hands not resetting to zero | Requires calibration or internal issue | Consult a service center. Some chronographs allow manual calibration via crown/pushers, but this model's specific method is not detailed here. |
| Condensation inside crystal | Water ingress | Immediately take the watch to a service center to prevent further damage. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact Titan customer support or an authorized service center.
