FAQs

How often should I have the watch serviced?

It is recommended to have your watch serviced every 3-5 years, or if you notice any performance issues.

What kind of battery does this watch use?

The watch uses a standard button cell battery. The specific type will be indicated on the back of the watch.

Is the leather strap replaceable?

Yes, the leather strap can be replaced. You can purchase a replacement strap from Hamilton or a third-party seller. Ensure the replacement strap has the correct lug width for your watch.

Can I swim with this watch?

The watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters, which is suitable for swimming and shallow water activities, but not for diving or prolonged water submersion.

Where can I find the user manual?

You can usually find the user manual online on the Hamilton website or from authorized retailers. You may also receive a physical manual with your watch.

How do I adjust the bracelet?

Since this model has a leather strap, adjustment is not applicable. For metal bracelet models, consult the user manual or a watchmaker.

How do I clean the watch case?

Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the watch case. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running.

Check the battery. If the battery is dead, replace it. If the watch still doesn't run, it may require professional servicing.

Chronograph hands are not aligning correctly.

Consult the user manual for instructions on resetting the chronograph hands to their zero positions. This may involve using the pushers in a specific sequence.

GMT hand is not displaying the correct time.

Ensure the GMT hand is correctly set to the desired time zone. Refer to the user manual for instructions on how to adjust the GMT hand.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting the Time and Date: Pull out the crown to the appropriate position to set the time, date, and GMT functions. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on setting each function.
Charging: This watch operates on a battery and does not require charging.
Strap Care: Clean the leather strap with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposure to water, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Use leather conditioner periodically to maintain its suppleness.
Water Resistance: While water-resistant up to 100 meters, avoid exposing the watch to sudden temperature changes or high-pressure water streams. Ensure the crown is fully screwed in before exposure to water.
Battery Replacement: Replace the battery when the second hand begins to skip intervals. It's recommended to have a professional watchmaker perform the battery replacement to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
