2. Set the date: In position 2, turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the date. Ensure the date changes at midnight, not noon.
3. Set the time: In position 3, turn the crown to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Pay attention to AM/PM for the 24-hour subdial.
4. Push in the crown: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into position 1 to secure the settings and ensure water resistance.

3.2 Adjusting the Band

The silicone band is adjustable via a traditional buckle clasp. To adjust, simply thread the band through the buckle and secure the pin into one of the pre-drilled holes for a comfortable fit on your wrist.

4.1 Using the Chronograph

The chronograph function allows for precise timing of events. It features 60-minute, 60-second, and 24-hour subdials.

2. Stop/Pause: Press the top pusher button again to stop or pause the chronograph.
3. Reset: While the chronograph is stopped, press the bottom pusher button to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.

2. The minute hand will then indicate the elapsed time against the bezel's scale.
