3. Water Resistance

This watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use, such as splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or showering with hot water, as steam can penetrate the seals.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning Your Watch

• Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.
• For stainless steel straps, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Ensure no moisture enters the watch case.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish and seals.

2. Battery Replacement

Your quartz watch is powered by a battery. When the battery runs low, the watch may stop or the second hand might skip. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure the watch's seals and water resistance are maintained.

3. Water Resistance Care

• Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in to maintain water resistance.
• Avoid operating the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged in water.
• Have the water resistance seals checked periodically (e.g., every 2-3 years) by a professional, especially after battery replacement.

Troubleshooting

• Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Incorrect time: Reset the time as per the 'Setting the Time and Date' instructions. If the time continues to be inaccurate, the watch may require professional inspection.
• Condensation under the crystal: This indicates a breach in the watch's water resistance. Seek immediate professional service to prevent further damage.
• Chronograph not resetting to zero: This may require a chronograph hand alignment procedure, which is best performed by a watch technician.
