Setup: Setting the Time

- Pull Out the Crown: Gently pull the crown outwards until you feel a click. This will stop the watch movement.
- Set the Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands to the desired time.
- Push In the Crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position. The watch will resume operation.
Operating Instructions
Water Resistance
Your Timex Metropolitan watch is water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. However, it is not recommended for swimming, bathing, or diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.
General Care
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
- Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields.
- Avoid direct contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, and cosmetic products, as they may damage the strap or case.
Maintenance
Battery Replacement
Your watch is powered by an analog-quartz movement and requires one CR2 battery (included). When the watch stops or the time becomes inaccurate, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Cleaning Your Watch
- Case and Crystal: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth.
- Leather Strap: Avoid prolonged exposure to water. If the strap gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth. Leather straps can be cleaned with a specialized leather cleaner or a very slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Watch not running | Dead battery | Replace battery (recommended by professional). |
| Incorrect time display | Crown not fully pushed in; time needs adjustment. | Push crown in completely. Reset time as per "Setting the Time" section. |
