Setup

Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) out to the second click position. The second hand will stop.
2. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands to the desired time. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set if your watch has a 24-hour indicator or date changes at midnight.
3. Push the crown back in to the normal position. The second hand will resume movement.

Setting the Date

1. Pull the crown out to the first click position.
2. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the model) to set the date.
3. Push the crown back in to the normal position.

Note: Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this may interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.

Operating the Chronograph

The chronograph function allows you to measure elapsed time with precision.

Chronograph Buttons

Using the Chronograph

1. To start timing, press Button A. The chronograph second hand will begin to move.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch 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 harsh chemicals.
• Water Resistance: While your watch is water-resistant, it is not designed for diving. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, hot showers, or saunas, as temperature changes can affect seals. Always ensure the crown is pushed in completely before any water exposure.
• Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures, either hot or cold, as this can affect accuracy and battery life.
• Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, mobile phones) as they can affect the watch's movement.
• Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump every few seconds (End-of-Life indicator), the battery needs replacement. This should be done by a qualified watch technician to maintain water resistance.
