2. Setting the Time and Date
- Pull the Crown: Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) out to the first click position to set the date, or to the second click position to set the time.
- Set the Date: If the crown is in the first click position, rotate it either clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the date.
- Set the Time: If the crown is in the second click position, rotate it to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Ensure to account for AM/PM if the watch has a 24-hour indicator or if setting the date.

Operating Instructions
1. Basic Timekeeping
Your Armani Exchange AX7101 watch is equipped with a precise quartz movement, providing accurate three-hand analog time display (hour, minute, second). Once the time is set, the watch will continuously display the current time.
2. Date Function
The watch includes a date display window. The date automatically advances once every 24 hours. If the date changes during the day, it indicates that the AM/PM setting was incorrect during the initial time setup. To correct this, pull the crown to the second click position and advance the time by 12 hours, then push the crown back in.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel components, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
2. Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (165 feet), rated at 5 ATM. This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming in shallow water. Do not press any buttons or pull the crown while the watch is wet or submerged. Avoid exposure to hot water, steam, or extreme temperature changes, as this can compromise the water resistance seals.
3. Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by one Lithium Metal battery (included). When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically, the battery may need replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance integrity.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Watch is not running. | Battery depleted or crown is pulled out. | Push the crown fully in. If still not running, the battery may need replacement. Consult a professional. |
| Date changes at noon instead of midnight. | AM/PM setting incorrect during time adjustment. | Pull the crown to the second click position and advance the time by 12 hours. Push the crown back in. |
