2.2 Adjusting the Mesh Bracelet

The mesh bracelet of your Calvin Klein watch is designed for adjustable sizing to ensure a comfortable fit. To adjust the bracelet:

1. Open the clasp: Locate the clasp on the bracelet and open it.
2. Lift the locking plate: Using a small tool (like a flat-head screwdriver or a watch tool), gently lift the small locking plate on the clasp mechanism. This will allow the clasp to slide along the mesh band.
3. Slide to adjust: Move the clasp along the mesh band to achieve the desired length. Ensure the watch fits snugly but comfortably on your wrist.
4. Secure the locking plate: Once the desired length is found, press the locking plate back down firmly until it clicks into place.
5. Test the fit: Close the clasp and wear the watch to ensure it is secure and comfortable.

3. Operation

Your Calvin Klein Exceptional watch is a 2-hand quartz timepiece, indicating hours and minutes. Once the time is set, the watch operates continuously, providing accurate timekeeping. No further user interaction is required for basic time display.

4. Maintenance

4.1 General Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. For the mesh bracelet, a soft brush can be used to gently clean between the links.
• Avoid chemicals: Do not expose your watch to harsh chemicals, solvents, or detergents, as these can damage the case, crystal, or bracelet.
• Temperature: Avoid extreme temperature changes and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can affect the watch's accuracy and materials.

4.2 Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant up to 3 ATM (30 meters / 100 feet). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water, such as washing hands or light rain. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or any water sports where it might be subjected to significant water pressure.

Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water to maintain water resistance.

4.3 Battery Replacement and Servicing

Your Calvin Klein watch is equipped with a quartz movement that requires a battery. A maintenance interval of 3 to 5 years is recommended for your timepiece, in addition to any required battery replacement. It is crucial that you never open the watch yourself. Any battery replacement or servicing should be performed by an authorized Calvin Klein service center or a qualified watchmaker to prevent damage and maintain the warranty.

5.2 Inaccurate Time
