3. Operating Your Watch

Your Sekonda watch is a quartz analog timepiece, meaning it is powered by a battery and displays time with traditional hour, minute, and second hands. Once the time is set, the watch operates continuously until the battery requires replacement.

3.1 Reading the Time

The watch displays time using three hands: the shorter hand indicates the hour, the longer hand indicates the minute, and the thin sweeping hand indicates the seconds. The blue dial features clear silver markers for easy readability.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish.

4.2 Water Resistance

This watch has a water resistance rating of 0 meters. This means it is not water-resistant for immersion. Protect your watch from all water exposure, including showering, swimming, or heavy rain. Accidental splashes should be wiped dry immediately.

4.3 Battery Replacement

Your watch is powered by a quartz battery. When the watch stops running, the battery will need to be replaced. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the integrity of the watch case and proper sealing.
