Operating the Watch
Your Swatch Skinelli watch is powered by a reliable quartz movement, ensuring accurate timekeeping. Once the time is set, the watch operates continuously.
Water Resistance
This watch has a water resistance rating of 30 meters (100 feet). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not recommended for swimming, showering, or diving.
- Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.
Maintenance
Cleaning
- To clean the watch case and band, use a soft, damp cloth.
- For the Milanese band, a soft brush can be used to gently remove dirt from the mesh.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaning materials, as these can damage the watch's finish and materials.
- Ensure the watch is dry after cleaning.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by one LR44 battery. When the battery is depleted, the watch will stop functioning. Battery replacement should ideally be performed by a qualified watch technician or an authorized Swatch service center to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Storage
When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, as this can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement.
