3. Maintenance
3.1 Cleaning
Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth (a watch wipe is included). For the stainless steel bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry one. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
3.2 Water Resistance (100m / 330ft)
Your watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet). This means it is suitable for daily use, hand washing, rain, and swimming. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
- Do NOT operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Avoid wearing the watch during diving or hot showers. Hot water and steam can compromise the waterproof seals over time.

The VK64 quartz movement is battery-powered. When the watch stops running, the battery may need replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
