Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set the time, pull out the crown on the side of the case and rotate it until the hands indicate the correct hour and minute. Once finished, push the crown firmly back into its flush position to ensure the watch maintains its seal. To keep the watch in top condition, wipe the nylon strap and case with a soft, dry cloth periodically to remove sweat or dirt buildup. Avoid exposing the watch to harsh chemicals, solvents, or extreme temperatures. While the watch is durable, it is not designed for submersion in water or high-pressure activities.
