- Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the model) to adjust the date.

Operating Instructions
1. Chronograph Function
The chronograph allows for precise timing of events. Refer to the diagram in the "Setting Time and Date" section for button identification.
- To Start/Stop the Chronograph: Press the "Start/Pause Button" (top pusher).
- To Pause/Resume: Press the "Start/Pause Button" again to pause, and press it once more to resume timing.
- To Reset the Chronograph: While the chronograph is stopped (paused or not running), press the "Reset Button" (bottom pusher) to return all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
2. Luminous Feature
The watch hands are designed with a luminous coating to ensure readability in low-light conditions. Exposure to light charges the luminous material, allowing it to glow in the dark.

Water Resistance Guidelines
Your MEGALITH watch is water-resistant up to 3 ATM (30 meters). This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes or brief immersion in water, such as washing hands or rain exposure.

Important:
- Do not press any buttons or pull the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
- Not suitable for swimming, showering, diving, or any prolonged water activities.
- Exposure to hot water (e.g., hot showers, saunas) can damage the watch's seals and compromise water resistance.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Regular cleaning helps maintain the appearance and longevity of your watch.
- Wipe the watch case and bracelet with a soft, dry microfiber cloth (one is included in the packaging).
- For stubborn dirt on the stainless steel bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
- Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.
2. Battery Replacement
Your quartz watch is powered by a standard watch battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to skip, it indicates a low battery.
- Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and prevent damage to the movement.
- Attempting to replace the battery yourself may void the warranty and compromise the watch's water resistance.
3. Storage
When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The elegant gift box provided can be used for storage.
