- Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) to set the correct date.

Note: Avoid setting the date between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM, as this may interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Chronograph Function
The watch features a chronograph (stopwatch) function with sub-dials for minutes and seconds.
- Start/Stop: Press the upper pusher (A) to start the chronograph. Press it again to stop.
- Reset: While the chronograph is stopped, press the lower pusher (C) to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
4.2 Luminous Function
The hands and hour markers of your watch are coated with a luminous material. After exposure to light, they will glow in the dark, providing visibility in low-light conditions.
4.3 Water Resistance (30M)
This watch is rated for 30 meters (3ATM) of water resistance. This means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or snorkeling. Avoid operating the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged to prevent water ingress.
5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning
Regularly wipe your watch with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. For the stainless steel strap, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners or abrasive materials.
5.2 Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a button cell battery (SR920SW). When the watch stops or the second hand begins to skip, it indicates a low battery. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
5.3 General Care
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or strong magnetic fields.
- Protect the watch from strong impacts or drops.
- Ensure the crown is always pushed in completely to maintain water resistance.
6. Troubleshooting
- Watch not running: Check if the crown is pushed in completely. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
- Condensation inside the crystal: This may indicate a loss of water resistance. Avoid further contact with water and have the watch inspected by a professional immediately.
- Chronograph hands not resetting to zero: This may require a chronograph hand adjustment. Consult a watch technician.
