Setting the Time
- Pull the Crown: Gently pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) out to its outermost position (usually the second click).
- Adjust Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise until the hands display the correct time.
- Push the Crown In: Once set, firmly push the crown back into its original position to start the watch.
Bracelet Adjustment
The stainless steel bracelet comes at a standard length and may need adjustment for a perfect fit. This typically involves adding or removing links.
- Professional Adjustment Recommended: Due to the specialized tools and expertise required, it is strongly recommended to take your watch to a professional jeweler or watch technician for bracelet sizing. Improper adjustment can damage the bracelet or the watch pins.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe the case, glass, and bracelet with a soft, lint-free, slightly damp cloth. For stubborn spots on the stainless steel, a mild soap solution can be used, ensuring to wipe thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth afterwards. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the gold-tone finish and the cubic zirconia.
- Cubic Zirconia Care: If the cubic zirconia stones appear dull, gently clean them with a soft brush (like a soft toothbrush) and mild soapy water, then rinse carefully with clean water and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Ensure no water enters the watch case.
- Water Exposure: The product description does not specify a water resistance rating. To ensure the longevity of your watch, avoid submerging it in water, swimming, showering, or exposing it to excessive moisture. Protect it from rain or splashes where possible.
- Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a watch box or soft pouch, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
