Tissot PR 100 Sport Chic Watch User Manual

Introduction

This manual provides essential instructions for the proper use, setup, and maintenance of your Tissot PR 100 Sport Chic watch, model T1019101111600. Please read this guide thoroughly to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your timepiece.

Setup

1. Setting the Time and Date

1. Unscrew the Crown (if applicable): If your watch features a screw-down crown, gently unscrew it counter-clockwise until it releases.
2. Pull the Crown to Position 2 (Date Setting): Gently pull the crown out to the first click position. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.
3. Pull the Crown to Position 3 (Time Setting): Pull the crown out to the second click position. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set by observing the date change (it changes at midnight).
4. Push and Screw Down the Crown: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into its original position. If it's a screw-down crown, gently push it in and screw it clockwise until it is securely tightened to maintain water resistance.

Operating the Watch

Timekeeping

Your Tissot PR 100 Sport Chic watch is equipped with a precise Swiss Quartz movement, ensuring accurate timekeeping. The watch displays hours, minutes, and seconds, along with a date function.

• Hour, Minute, Second Hands: These hands continuously display the current time.
• Date Display: The date window typically changes once every 24 hours.

Maintenance

Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch, regularly clean the case and metal bracelet with a soft, damp cloth. For stainless steel, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Water Resistance

This watch is water-resistant up to a pressure of 10 bar (100 meters / 330 feet). This rating makes it suitable for short periods of recreational swimming and showering. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and, if applicable, screwed down to maintain water resistance.

Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged in water.

Battery Replacement

As a quartz watch, it is powered by a battery. When the battery life is nearing its end, the second hand may jump every few seconds (End-of-Life indicator). Battery replacement should be performed by an authorized Tissot service center to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.

  • Ensure the time is not set during the restricted date change period (9 PM - 3 AM).
  • Re-set the time and date as per the "Setting the Time and Date" instructions.
