Maintenance

Water Resistance (5 ATM)

Your watch is water-resistant up to 5 ATM (50 meters). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as showering. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or prolonged water activities. Do not operate buttons while the watch is wet or submerged.

Cleaning

Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners, as they may damage the watch materials.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz movement and requires a battery (1 C battery is listed in specifications). When the display dims or the watch stops functioning, it's time for a battery replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Troubleshooting

  • Watch Not Running / Display Blank:

    Check if the battery needs replacement. Ensure the crown is pushed in completely for analog movement.

  • Incorrect Time/Date:

    Refer to the "Setting the Digital Time and Date" and "Setting the Analog Time" sections to re-adjust the time and date.

  • Buttons Not Responding:

    Ensure the watch is not in a locked mode (if applicable, though this model typically does not have one). If the watch is wet, dry it thoroughly before attempting to press buttons. If issues persist, a battery replacement might be necessary, or contact support.
