Setup

Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to position 2 (the outermost position).
2. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Ensure AM/PM is correctly set if your watch has a 24-hour indicator.

Setting the Date

Operating Instructions

Using the Chronograph

Your watch is equipped with a chronograph function for measuring elapsed time. The specific operation may vary slightly, but generally involves:

1. Start: Press the upper pusher button to start the chronograph. The chronograph second hand and subdial hands will begin to move.
2. Stop: Press the upper pusher button again to stop the chronograph. The elapsed time will be indicated by the chronograph hands.
3. Reset: Press the lower pusher button to reset the chronograph hands to their zero positions.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant up to 30 meters (3 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and silicone strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz battery. When the battery runs low, the watch may stop or the second hand may skip. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Storage

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

Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: Check if the crown is pushed all the way in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Date Not Changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, especially past midnight. If the date changes at noon, the AM/PM setting needs adjustment.
• Chronograph Hands Not Resetting to Zero: This may require a chronograph reset procedure. Consult a watch technician if the issue persists after attempting to reset by pressing the lower pusher.
• Condensation Under Crystal: This indicates a loss of water resistance. Avoid further water exposure and have the watch inspected by a technician immediately.
