Product Overview
The Mondaine Essence watch combines classic Swiss design with a commitment to sustainability. It features a clean, simple aesthetic inspired by the Official Swiss Railways Clock, utilizing eco-friendly and renewable materials for its construction.
Setup
Setting the Time
- Locate the crown on the right side of the watch case.
- Gently pull the crown outwards until you feel a click. This is the time-setting position.
- Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position firmly. Ensure it is fully seated to maintain water resistance.
Operating
Your Mondaine Essence watch is a quartz timepiece designed for accurate timekeeping. Once the time is set, the watch will operate continuously until the battery requires replacement. The distinct red second hand moves in precise steps, characteristic of the Swiss Railways Clock design.
Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean your watch, wipe the case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the watch's finish or strap material.
Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM / 100 feet). This rating means the watch is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not recommended for swimming, showering, or diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by one LR44 battery. When the watch stops running, it indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watchmaker or authorized service center to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Watch Not Running
- Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is pulled out, the watch will not run.
- If the crown is correctly seated and the watch is still not running, the battery may need replacement. Refer to the 'Battery Replacement' section.
Condensation Inside Crystal
If you notice condensation inside the watch crystal, this indicates a potential breach in water resistance. Immediately seek professional service to prevent further damage to the movement.
