4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning Your Watch
Regular cleaning helps maintain the appearance of your watch. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and strap. For the silicone strap, mild soap and water can be used, then rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watchmaker or authorized service center to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
