FAQs

Does this watch require batteries?

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

No, the watch has 30m water resistance, which is intended for splashes only. It should not be submerged in water.

What is Hardlex crystal?

Hardlex is Seiko's proprietary mineral glass that is hardened to provide greater scratch and impact resistance than standard glass.

How long does the power reserve last?

Is the watch band adjustable?

Yes, like most standard metal link bracelets, you can remove links to achieve the perfect fit for your wrist size.

Troubleshooting

Gently shake the watch side-to-side for about 30 seconds to initiate the automatic winding mechanism.
