2. Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to the time setting position.
2. Rotate the crown to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
3. Push the crown back into the normal position to start the watch.

Operating Instructions

Timekeeping

This watch features a 3-hand movement, displaying hours, minutes, and seconds. Once the time is set and the watch is sufficiently charged, it will accurately keep time. The Eco-Drive movement continuously charges when exposed to light, ensuring consistent operation.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and bracelet periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Water Resistance (50 Meters / 5 ATM)

Your watch is water resistant to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, showering, and general daily use. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or prolonged water immersion. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

Troubleshooting

Watch Has Stopped

If the watch hands stop moving, it indicates insufficient charge. Expose the watch to bright light for several hours to recharge it. The watch should resume normal operation once adequately charged.
