2. Setup
Initial Unboxing
Carefully remove the watch from its packaging. Inspect the watch for any visible damage. Ensure all protective films are removed from the crystal, case back, and bracelet.
Setting the Time
- Pull out the crown: Gently pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) to the outermost position. For watches with a screw-down crown, unscrew it counter-clockwise first, then pull it out.
- Adjust the time: Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Push in the crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into its normal operating position. If it's a screw-down crown, push it in and screw it clockwise until it is secure to maintain water resistance.
Bracelet Adjustment
The stainless steel bracelet may require adjustment to fit your wrist comfortably. It is recommended to have this procedure performed by a professional jeweler or watch technician to avoid damaging the bracelet or clasp.

3. Operating the Watch
Basic Timekeeping
Your Michael Kors Maritime watch is a quartz movement timepiece, providing accurate timekeeping. The main hands display hours, minutes, and seconds.
Chronograph Function
This watch features a chronograph (stopwatch) function. The pushers on the side of the case, adjacent to the crown, control this feature:
- Start/Stop: Press the top pusher to start and stop the chronograph.
- Reset: With the chronograph stopped, press the bottom pusher to reset the chronograph hands to zero.
Water Resistance (20 ATM / 200 Meters)
Your watch is water resistant up to 200 meters (20 ATM). This means it is suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports, but not for saturation diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and, if applicable, screwed down tightly before exposing the watch to water. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
4. Maintenance
Cleaning
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by an LR44 battery. When the watch stops running, it indicates the battery needs replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.
Water Resistance Check
It is recommended to have the watch's water resistance checked annually, especially if it is frequently exposed to water, or after any service that involves opening the case back.
Storage
When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original watch box is ideal for storage.

5. Troubleshooting
- Watch not running:
- Check if the crown is fully pushed in.
- The battery may need replacement. Contact a qualified technician.
- Time is inaccurate:
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after setting the time.
- Extreme temperatures or strong magnetic fields can affect quartz accuracy.
- If the issue persists, the movement may require service.
- Moisture under the crystal:
- This indicates a breach in water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a service center to prevent further damage.
