Maintenance and Care

Water Resistance

Cleaning

To clean your watch, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the resin case and strap.

Battery Replacement

The watch uses 1 Lithium Metal battery (included). When the display dims or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
