Water Resistance Guidelines
This watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use, showering, and swimming in shallow water. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-pressure water activities.
- Do not operate buttons while the watch is submerged in water.
- Avoid exposing the watch to hot water or steam, as this can compromise the seals.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before exposing the watch to water.

Maintenance
Cleaning
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your watch, regularly wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners or solvents.
Battery Replacement
The watch uses a Lithium-metal battery, which typically lasts approximately two years. When the display becomes dim or functions become erratic, it may be time to replace the battery. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seals are properly re-installed.
Strap and Clasp Care
The comfortable resin sports strap and 304 stainless steel crown clasp are designed for durability. Inspect them periodically for wear and tear. Clean the clasp to prevent dirt buildup that could affect its operation.

Inaccurate Time
