3.2 Luminous Display
The watch hands feature a luminous coating, allowing for time readability in low-light conditions. Exposure to light will charge the luminous material.
3.3 Water Resistance
This watch is 3ATM water resistant, meaning it can withstand splashes, rain, or brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or hot water activities (e.g., showering, sauna) as steam can penetrate the seals.

4. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture.
- Water Exposure: While water resistant, avoid prolonged exposure to water. If the watch gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not operate buttons or the crown while the watch is wet.
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect the movement and seals.
- Chemicals: Keep the watch away from chemicals, solvents, and detergents, which can damage the case, strap, or seals.
- Battery Replacement: The quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or the time becomes inaccurate, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
