Setup
1. Setting the Time
- Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) out to the first or second click position. For most quartz watches, pulling it out to the first click allows for date adjustment (if applicable), and the second click allows for time adjustment.
- Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position against the watch case. This will start the watch movement.
2. Bracelet Adjustment
The stainless steel bracelet may require adjustment to fit your wrist comfortably. This typically involves removing or adding links. It is recommended to have this procedure performed by a professional watchmaker or jeweler to avoid damage to the bracelet or watch.
Operating the Watch
Basic Timekeeping
Your GUESS G85386G watch is a quartz timepiece, known for its accuracy. Once the time is set, the watch will continuously display the current time. The second hand will move in distinct one-second intervals.
Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet / 10 ATM). This rating means the watch is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. Avoid operating the crown or pushers (if any) while the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise the water resistance seal.
Special Features
- Glow In The Dark: The hands and/or hour markers are treated with luminous material, allowing for readability in low-light conditions after exposure to light.
- Second Hand: A dedicated second hand provides precise time measurement.
Maintenance
Cleaning
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel bracelets, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.
Battery Replacement
Your quartz watch is powered by a battery. When the battery runs low, the watch may stop or the second hand may skip seconds. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure the watch's water resistance is maintained and to prevent damage to the movement.
Water Resistance Care
The gaskets that ensure water resistance can degrade over time. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked annually by a professional, especially if the watch is frequently exposed to water.
Troubleshooting
- Watch Not Running:
- Check if the crown is pushed all the way in. If it is pulled out, push it back in.
- The battery may be depleted. Contact a professional for battery replacement.
- Time Inaccuracy:
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting the time.
- Extreme temperatures or strong magnetic fields can affect quartz accuracy. Avoid prolonged exposure.
- If inaccuracy persists, the movement may require servicing by a professional.
- Condensation Inside Crystal:
- This indicates a breach in the water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a professional watchmaker to prevent further damage to the movement.
