2.2 Setting the Time
- Locate the crown on the right side of the watch case.
- Pull the crown out to the first position. The second hand will stop.

3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Wearing the Watch
Adjust the faux-leather strap to fit comfortably around your wrist. Secure the watch using the buckle closure. Ensure the watch is not too tight to allow for proper circulation, nor too loose to prevent excessive movement.
3.2 Timekeeping
The watch operates continuously once the time is set and the crown is pushed in. No further action is required for daily timekeeping.
4. Care and Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean the watch case and glass, use a soft, dry cloth. For the faux-leather strap, wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
4.2 Water Resistance
Important: This watch is NOT water resistant. Avoid all contact with water, including showering, swimming, or exposure to rain and high humidity. Water exposure can cause irreversible damage to the internal movement.
4.3 Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a product-specific battery (included). When the watch stops or the second hand begins to skip, the battery may need replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to prevent damage to the watch movement and ensure proper sealing.
4.4 Storage
When not in use, store the watch in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original watch box can be used for storage.
5. Troubleshooting
Watch Not Running
- Check the Crown: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in against the watch case. If it is pulled out, the watch will not run.
- Battery Depletion: The battery may be depleted. Refer to section 4.3 for battery replacement information.
- Impact Damage: If the watch has been subjected to a significant impact, internal components may be damaged. Seek professional repair.
Inaccurate Timekeeping
- Battery Low: A low battery can affect timekeeping accuracy. Replace the battery if necessary.
- Magnetic Fields: Exposure to strong magnetic fields can temporarily affect quartz watch accuracy. Move the watch away from magnetic sources.
- Extreme Temperatures: Extreme hot or cold temperatures can affect the quartz crystal's oscillation frequency, leading to inaccuracies.
