Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to Position 2. The second hand will stop.
2. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure you set the correct AM/PM time, as this affects the date change.
3. Once the time is set, push the crown back into its normal operating position.

Setting the Date and Day

1. Pull the crown out to Position 1.
2. Turn the crown clockwise to adjust the Day.
3. Turn the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the Date.
4. Avoid setting the date and day between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM, as this is when the automatic date change mechanism is engaged and could be damaged.
5. Once the date and day are set, push the crown back into its normal operating position.

The watch also features luminous hands for visibility in low-light conditions.

Maintenance

Water Resistance

This watch is rated for 30 meters (3 ATM) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water, such as hand washing. It is NOT suitable for swimming, diving, showering, or any water-related work where it would be submerged for extended periods or exposed to high-pressure water. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

Cleaning

• Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.
• For stainless steel parts, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth.
• Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.

Battery Replacement

The quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand starts skipping, it indicates a low battery. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

Storage

When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Date/Day not changing: Ensure the time is set correctly for AM/PM. If the issue persists, avoid manual adjustment between 9 PM and 3 AM. If still problematic, a professional inspection may be required.
• Condensation inside the watch: This indicates a loss of water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a professional for inspection and repair to prevent further damage to the movement.
• Inaccurate timekeeping: While quartz movements are highly accurate, significant deviation may indicate a need for battery replacement or servicing.

For issues not covered here, please contact customer support or a certified watch repair center.
