5. Maintenance

5.1. Cleaning Your Watch

• Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, dry cloth regularly to remove dust and dirt.
• For silicone straps, a mild soap and water solution can be used, then rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish.

5.2. Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by one AA battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically, it indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.

5.3. Water Resistance Care

• Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
• Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes (e.g., hot showers, saunas), as this can compromise the water resistance seals.
• Have the water resistance seals checked periodically by a professional, especially after battery replacement.
