FAQs

Is this watch suitable for deep-sea diving?

No, this watch is rated for 100-meter water resistance, which is sufficient for swimming and snorkeling, but it is not intended for scuba diving or high-pressure water sports.

Can I replace the nylon band?

The watch features a specific band design; it is recommended to use official Casio replacements to ensure a proper fit and security.

Does the watch have an alarm feature?

No, this model is a straightforward analog timepiece and does not include alarm or digital notification features.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

Battery life varies based on usage of the LED light, but generally, these quartz movements are designed for several years of operation on a single battery.

Is the watch face scratch-resistant?

The watch uses standard mineral glass which is durable, though it can be scratched by hard impacts or abrasive surfaces.

Troubleshooting

The watch hands are not moving.

The battery may be depleted. Take the watch to an authorized service center for a battery replacement.

The LED light does not turn on.

Verify if the battery power is sufficient. If the light remains dim or fails to activate, the battery may need replacing.

This may indicate a broken seal. Immediately dry the outside and take the watch to a professional to check the water resistance gaskets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your watch functioning correctly, follow these basic care instructions:

  1. Initial Setup: Pull the crown out gently to the first click to adjust the date, and pull it to the second click to adjust the time. Ensure the crown is pushed fully back in after adjustment to maintain water resistance.
  2. Cleaning: After exposure to salt water or mud, rinse the watch with fresh water and wipe it dry with a soft cloth to prevent residue build-up on the nylon band.
  3. Battery Maintenance: While the quartz movement features a long battery life, if the watch stops, have the battery replaced by a professional to ensure the case seal is properly re-applied.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct magnetic fields to preserve the accuracy of the quartz movement.
