Watch Components
Your OLEVS watch is crafted with precision and features several key components:
- Case: The main body of the watch, housing the movement and dial.
- Dial: The watch face, displaying time, date, and other functions.
- Hands: Hour, minute, and second hands, often with luminous coating.
- Crown: Located on the side of the case, used for setting time and date.
- Pushers: Buttons typically used to operate chronograph functions.
- Strap/Bracelet: Secures the watch to your wrist, made of durable stainless steel.
- Crystal: The transparent cover protecting the dial, made of high hardness coated glass.
- Movement: The internal mechanism that keeps time, a precise quartz movement.

Setup
Setting Time and Date
- Setting the Date: Gently pull the crown out to the first position. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise until the correct date is displayed in the date window.
- Setting the Time: Pull the crown out to the second position. Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands to the desired time. For accurate setting, it is recommended to set the time a few minutes ahead and then push the crown back in when a time signal (e.g., from a radio or phone) reaches the exact time.
- Once time and date are set, push the crown back in completely to its original position to engage the movement and ensure water resistance.

Adjusting the Stainless Steel Band
Your watch comes with a stainless steel band that can be adjusted to fit your wrist. A link remover tool is provided for this purpose. The process involves carefully pushing out pins from the links to remove or add sections of the band.
- Place the band in the link remover tool, aligning the pin with the tool's pusher.
- Carefully turn the screw on the tool to push the pin out. Note the direction of the arrows on the inside of the band links, as pins should be pushed out in that direction.
- Remove the desired number of links.
- Reassemble the band by inserting the pins back into the links in the opposite direction of removal, ensuring they are fully seated.
Note: If you encounter difficulty or prefer professional assistance, it is recommended to take your watch to a qualified jeweler for band adjustment.
Operation
Chronograph Function
The chronograph allows you to measure elapsed time. It typically operates using the two pushers located on either side of the crown.
- Start/Stop: Press the top pusher to start the chronograph. Press it again to stop.
- Reset: While the chronograph is stopped, press the bottom pusher to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
Moon Phase Display
The moon phase sub-dial indicates the current phase of the moon. This feature is typically synchronized with the date mechanism and advances automatically. Manual adjustment may be required if the watch stops or after battery replacement. Consult a jeweler for precise moon phase setting if needed.
Luminous Display
The hands and hour markers on your OLEVS watch are coated with a luminous material. This material absorbs light during the day and emits a glow in low-light conditions, allowing for easy readability in the dark. The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the amount and intensity of light absorbed.

Maintenance
Water Resistance
Your OLEVS watch has a water resistance rating of 3ATM (30 meters). This means it is suitable for daily life waterproof activities such as hand washing, car washing, and cold showers. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or prolonged submersion in water. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.

Cleaning Your Watch
To keep your watch looking its best, wipe the case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth regularly. For the stainless steel band, you can use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Battery Replacement
Your quartz watch is powered by a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically (if applicable), it indicates that the battery needs replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Troubleshooting
