Operating Instructions

Timekeeping

Your Michael Kors Lexington watch utilizes a quartz movement for accurate timekeeping. The main hands display hours, minutes, and seconds. The multifunction sub-dials provide additional information, including a 24-hour indicator.

Chronograph Function

This watch features a chronograph, allowing you to measure elapsed time. The sub-dials on the watch face are dedicated to this function. Refer to the specific markings on your watch for precise operation of the start, stop, and reset pushers.

Water Resistance

The watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming in shallow water. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. For the stainless steel band, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original watch box is ideal for storage.
• Battery Replacement: The quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically (indicating low battery), it is time for a replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to maintain water resistance and prevent damage.
• Avoid Impacts: While durable, avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong impacts, which can damage the internal movement or crystal.
