2. Bracelet Adjustment

Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth regularly. For more thorough cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish or crystal.

Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 165 feet (50 meters). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, but not for diving or snorkeling. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise the water resistance. Exposure to hot water (e.g., showers, hot tubs) should also be avoided, as temperature changes can affect seals.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a quartz battery. When the watch stops running, the battery will need to be replaced. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional watch repair service to ensure the proper battery type is used and the water resistance seal is maintained.

Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Time Inaccuracy: If the watch is consistently fast or slow, the battery may be low, or the movement may require servicing.
• Condensation Under Crystal: This indicates a breach in the water resistance. Avoid further exposure to water and seek professional service immediately.
