3.1 Initial Time Setting

1. Gently pull the crown out to the first or second click position (depending on the model's specific functions).
2. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the correct time.
3. Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position to engage the movement.

3.2 Date Setting (if applicable)

1. Pull the crown out to the first click position.
2. Rotate the crown to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
3. Push the crown back into its original position.

3.3 Band Adjustment

The watch band is adjustable by adding or removing links. This procedure typically requires specialized tools and should be performed by a qualified watch technician to prevent damage to the band or clasp.

4. Operating the Watch

4.1 Quartz Movement

Your Invicta watch is powered by a precise Swiss quartz movement, which uses a battery (Type 395) and a vibrating quartz crystal to keep accurate time.

4.2 Chronograph Functions

The watch features a chronograph for measuring elapsed time. The subdials indicate:

• 30-Minute Subdial: Measures up to 30 minutes.
• 60-Second Subdial: Measures up to 60 seconds.
• 10-Hour Subdial: Measures up to 10 hours.

Refer to the specific instructions for your movement caliber (8040.N) for detailed operation of the chronograph pushers, typically located on the side of the case near the crown.

4.3 Unidirectional Bezel

The unidirectional rotating bezel can be used to time events. Rotate the bezel so its zero marker aligns with the minute hand. As time passes, the minute hand will indicate the elapsed time against the bezel's scale. The bezel rotates in only one direction to prevent accidental shortening of timed intervals.

4.4 Water Resistance

This watch is water-resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This rating makes it suitable for recreational surfing, swimming, snorkeling, sailing, and watersports. It is not suitable for diving. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, regularly wipe the case and band with a soft, dry cloth. For water-resistant models, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

5.2 Battery Replacement

The watch uses a Type 395 battery. When the battery is depleted, the watch will stop functioning. Battery replacement should be performed by a professional watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

5.3 Crystal Care

The Flame Fusion crystal is designed for durability. While resistant to scratches, it is not entirely scratch-proof. Avoid impacts and contact with sharp objects to preserve its integrity.

6. Troubleshooting

• Watch has stopped: This typically indicates a depleted battery. Arrange for professional battery replacement.
• Time is inaccurate: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting the time. If inaccuracy persists after battery replacement, the movement may require servicing.
• Condensation under crystal: If condensation appears, it may indicate a breach in the watch's water resistance. Have the watch inspected by a professional immediately to prevent internal damage.
