Setup
1. Initial Inspection
Upon unboxing, inspect the watch for any visible damage. Ensure all protective films are removed from the crystal and case back.
2. Adjusting the Bracelet
The watch features an adjustable metal bracelet. To adjust the length, locate the clasp mechanism. Some clasps allow for fine adjustments by moving the spring bar to different slots. For significant length reduction, links may need to be removed by a qualified jeweler or watch technician.
3. Setting the Time and Date
- Pull out the crown: Gently pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) out to the first click for date adjustment, and to the second click for time adjustment.
- Set the time: Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands. Set the time to the desired hour, ensuring the AM/PM is correctly set if the watch has a 24-hour indicator (this model does not, so observe the date change around midnight).
- Set the date: If the crown is pulled to the first click, rotate it to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9:00 PM and 1:00 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
- Push the crown back: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back in completely to its normal position. This engages the movement and starts the watch.

Operating Instructions
Reading the Time
The watch displays time using traditional hour, minute, and second hands on an analog dial.
Date Display
The watch features a date display window. The date automatically advances once every 24 hours. If the date does not change at midnight, it may be due to incorrect AM/PM setting during initial setup. Re-adjust the time as described in the 'Setting the Time and Date' section.
Water Resistance (50 Meters)
Your Casio Enticer watch is water resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as washing hands. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering with hot water, as steam and pressure changes can compromise the seals. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the watch case and bracelet periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture. For metal bracelets, a soft brush and mild soapy water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners or abrasive materials.
Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a single A battery (included). When the watch stops or the hands move erratically, it indicates a low battery. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance. Attempting to replace the battery yourself may void the warranty and damage the watch.
Care Precautions
- Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (below 0°C or above 40°C) or sudden temperature changes.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, such as those emitted by speakers, refrigerators, or mobile phones, as this can affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Shocks: While durable, avoid strong impacts or dropping the watch.
- Chemicals: Do not expose the watch to gasoline, cleaning solvents, aerosols, adhesives, paints, or other chemicals, as they can damage the case, band, or seals.
Troubleshooting
- Watch has stopped: This typically indicates a depleted battery. Arrange for battery replacement by a professional.
- Incorrect time/date: Refer to the 'Setting the Time and Date' section to re-adjust. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after adjustment.
- Condensation inside the crystal: This may indicate a breach in the watch's water resistance. Seek immediate professional service to prevent further damage.
For issues not listed here, or if troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem, contact Casio customer support or an authorized service center.
