2. Initial Setup
2.1. Setting the Time
- Pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) out to the furthest position.
- Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Push the crown back in to its original position to start the watch.
2.2. Setting the Date (if applicable)
If your watch features a date display, it can typically be set by pulling the crown out to an intermediate position (usually one click out from fully in). Turn the crown to adjust the date. Once set, push the crown back in fully.
2.3. Adjusting the Strap
The silicone strap can be adjusted to fit your wrist comfortably. Use the buckle to select the appropriate hole for a secure, yet not overly tight, fit. This model often includes multiple straps, which can be interchanged using the quick-release pins on the spring bars.

3.2. Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (328 feet). This means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or prolonged water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating the pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
4. Care and Maintenance
4.1. Cleaning Your Watch
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For silicone straps, mild soap and water can be used. Ensure the watch is completely dry before wearing.
4.2. Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a standard watch battery (included). When the watch stops running, it indicates the battery needs replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance integrity.
