- 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 in firmly against the watch case to secure it and start the watch movement.
Bracelet Adjustment

Operating Instructions
Basic Timekeeping
Once the time is set and the crown is pushed back in, the watch will begin to keep time. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.
Water Resistance

Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
- Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
- For more thorough cleaning, especially for the bracelet, use a soft brush and mild soapy water. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before cleaning with water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a soft cloth.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish and components.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a quartz movement and requires a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically (if applicable), it indicates a low battery. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watchmaker or authorized service center to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Storage
When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The original watch box is ideal for storage.
