The Armitron Men's Date Function Mesh Bracelet Watch (Model 20/5123BKSV) is a sophisticated timepiece designed for daily wear. It features a durable silver-tone metal case with a mineral dial window, protecting its sleek black dial. The watch is equipped with a reliable Japanese quartz movement, ensuring accurate timekeeping and an analog display. A date window is conveniently located at the 6 o'clock position.

The comfortable stainless steel mesh bracelet is secured with a fold-over clasp, providing a secure and adjustable fit. This watch is water-resistant to 30 meters (100 feet), making it suitable for splashes or brief immersion in water, but it is not recommended for swimming or bathing.

Setup and Initial Use

Setting the Time and Date

1. Pull out the Crown: Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) out to the first or second position.
   • First Position (Date Adjustment): If your watch has a date function, pulling the crown to the first click allows you to adjust the date. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise until the correct date appears in the date window.
   • Second Position (Time Adjustment): Pull the crown out further to the second click. This position allows you to adjust the time. Turn the crown to move the hour and minute hands until the desired time is set.
2. Push in the Crown: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back in completely to its original position. This will start the watch movement.

Adjusting the Mesh Bracelet

The stainless steel mesh bracelet features an adjustable clasp for a customized fit. To adjust:

1. Open the Safety Clasp: Locate the small lever on the clasp and lift it to open the safety clasp.
2. Unlock the Main Clasp: Use a small, flat tool (like a small screwdriver or a watch tool) to lift the locking bar on the main clasp. This will allow the clasp to slide along the mesh band.
3. Adjust Length: Slide the clasp along the mesh band to achieve the desired length. Ensure the watch fits snugly but comfortably on your wrist.
4. Lock the Main Clasp: Press the locking bar back down firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure it is fully secured to prevent accidental opening.
5. Close the Safety Clasp: Close the safety clasp over the main clasp.

Operating Instructions

Daily Operation

Your Armitron watch is powered by a Japanese quartz movement, which provides accurate and reliable timekeeping. Once the time and date are set, the watch will operate continuously until the battery requires replacement.

• Time Display: The watch displays hours, minutes, and seconds via three hands on the dial.
• Date Function: The date window at the 6 o'clock position will automatically advance daily. If the date needs manual adjustment (e.g., after months with fewer than 31 days), refer to the "Setting the Time and Date" section.

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch, regularly wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth. For the mesh bracelet, a soft brush can be used to gently remove dirt from the links. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet). This rating means the watch can withstand splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering, as prolonged exposure to water pressure or steam can compromise the seals.

Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

Battery Replacement

The watch uses one LR44 battery. When the watch stops running, it indicates the battery needs replacement. Battery replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is properly maintained.
