Setup

1. Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown (located on the right side of the watch case) out to the second click position.
2. Turn the crown to move the hands clockwise until the desired time is set.
3. Push the crown back into its normal position to start the watch.

2. Setting the Date

1. Pull the crown out to the first click position.
2. Turn the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the date.
3. Once the correct date is displayed, push the crown back into its normal position.
4. Note: Avoid setting the date between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM, as this may interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.

3. Strap Adjustment

Operating the Chronograph

Your Nautica NST Chronograph watch is equipped with a stopwatch function.

1. Start: Press the upper pusher (button) to start the chronograph. The chronograph second hand will begin to move.
2. Stop: Press the upper pusher again to stop the chronograph. The elapsed time will be indicated by the chronograph hands.
3. Reset: With the chronograph stopped, press the lower pusher to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.

Luminous Hands

The watch hands are treated with luminous infill, allowing for readability in low-light conditions after exposure to light.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. For the silicone strap, mild soap and water can be used. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before cleaning with water.

Water Resistance

This watch is water-resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This makes it suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for diving. Always ensure the screw-down crown and screw-down case back are fully secured before any exposure to water to prevent damage. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

Battery Replacement

When the watch stops running, it indicates that the battery needs replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure the water resistance seal is maintained.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
• Date not changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle. If the date changes at noon, the watch is set for the wrong 12-hour cycle. Advance the time by 12 hours.
• Water inside the watch: If condensation or water appears inside the watch, immediately take it to a qualified service center. This indicates a breach in the water resistance.
