Setup
1. Initial Time Setting
- Locate the Crown: The crown is the small knob on the right side of the watch case.
- Pull Out the Crown: Gently pull the crown outwards to the first or second click position. For most watches, pulling it out to the furthest position (second click) allows you to set the time.
- Set the Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Push In the Crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position against the watch case. This will start the watch movement.
2. Adjusting the Strap
The Marea B35251/1 features a synthetic leather strap with a buckle clasp. To adjust the fit:
- Insert the pin of the buckle into the desired hole on the strap that provides a comfortable and secure fit on your wrist.
- Ensure the watch is not too tight, which could restrict circulation, nor too loose, which could cause it to move excessively.
Operating Instructions
Basic Timekeeping
Your Marea B35251/1 watch is a quartz movement timepiece, providing accurate time display with three hands: hour, minute, and a dedicated seconds hand. Once the time is set, the watch will continuously display the current time.
Luminous Hands
The watch features luminous hour and minute hands. These hands absorb light during the day and glow in low-light conditions, allowing for easier readability in the dark. The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the exposure to light.
Maintenance
Cleaning Your Watch
- Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.
- For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no water enters the watch case. Dry thoroughly immediately after.
- Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or strap.
Water Resistance (5 ATM)
Your Marea B35251/1 watch has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM (50 meters). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as washing hands. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or any water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
Battery Replacement
As a quartz watch, your Marea B35251/1 is powered by a battery. The battery life typically ranges from 1 to 3 years, depending on usage. When the watch stops or the seconds hand begins to skip, it is likely time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.
