Maintenance

Cleaning

• Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth.
• For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals. Clean with a slightly damp cloth if necessary, and allow to air dry completely.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use, showering, and swimming in shallow water. It is not suitable for diving or snorkeling. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump irregularly, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

Strap Care

The black leather strap is designed for comfort and durability. To prolong its life, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemicals. If the strap becomes wet, allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Incorrect time/date: Refer to the "Setting the Time" and "Setting the Date" sections to adjust.
• Chronograph hands not resetting to zero: This may indicate a need for calibration or service. Consult a professional watch repair service.
