What type of movement does this watch use?

This watch uses a reliable 3-hand Quartz movement.

Is the watch suitable for swimming?

No, the watch has a water resistance of 3ATM, which is only suitable for protection against splashes like rain or faucet spray. It should not be submerged in water.

How do I adjust the mesh bracelet?

The black ion-plated stainless steel mesh bracelet typically features a sliding clasp that can be adjusted for a custom fit. Consult the product manual or a watch professional for precise instructions.

What is the case diameter and thickness?

The case diameter is 42mm, and the case thickness is 8.6mm.

What does 'IP' mean on the bracelet?

IP stands for Ion Plating, a surface treatment applied to the stainless steel to give it a black color and enhance its durability and scratch resistance.

Does the watch have a luminous display?

The product description does not specify luminous hands or markers. It is recommended to check the product specifications or packaging for details on luminescence.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

Battery life typically ranges from 1 to 3 years, depending on usage and battery type. A watchmaker can advise on replacement when needed.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped working

The battery may be depleted. A qualified watchmaker can replace the battery. Ensure the crown is pushed in fully.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are setting the date by pulling the crown to the first click. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the mechanism. Consult a professional if the issue persists.

Strap adjustment is difficult

Mesh bracelets often have a sliding clasp. Consult the manual or a watch professional for specific adjustment instructions for this clasp type.

Condensation under the crystal

This may indicate a breach in water resistance. Remove the watch from moisture immediately and have it inspected by a watch repair professional.
