Maintenance and Water Resistance
Your Timex Easy Reader Watch is designed for everyday durability.
- Water Resistance: This watch is water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet). This means it can withstand splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, bathing, or diving.
- General Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your watch, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures, harsh chemicals, or prolonged direct sunlight. Clean the case and strap with a soft, damp cloth as needed.

Troubleshooting
While the Timex Easy Reader Watch is built for reliability, here are some common points to note:
- Audible Ticking: Some users may notice that the second hand produces an audible ticking sound. This is a characteristic of the watch's movement and is not indicative of a defect. If this is a concern, please consider this aspect before purchase.
- Date Not Changing: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting the date. If the date does not advance at midnight, you may need to manually adjust it.
