Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Setting the Time: Gently pull out the crown (the small knob on the side) until it clicks. Rotate the crown to adjust the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Once set, push the crown back in completely to start the watch mechanism.
- Bracelet Adjustment: The bracelet may need to be adjusted to fit your wrist comfortably. Due to its design and crystal embellishments, it's recommended to have this done by a professional jeweler or watch technician to avoid damage to the links or crystals.
Compatibility
This watch's classic gold-tone and elegant design make it highly versatile. It seamlessly integrates with both casual and formal wardrobes. Its moderate size is suitable for various wrist sizes, offering a sophisticated look without overpowering your ensemble. Consider pairing it with other gold-tone jewelry to create a cohesive aesthetic.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: To maintain the brilliance of the crystals and the gold-tone finish, gently wipe the watch with a soft, lint-free cloth. For a deeper clean, dampen the cloth slightly with plain water (avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners) and carefully wipe the surfaces. Ensure no water enters the crown if it's not fully pushed in.
- Water Resistance: The watch is water-resistant to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as washing hands. It is not suitable for showering, swimming, diving, or prolonged submersion.
- Crystal Care: Avoid direct impact or abrasive surfaces that could scratch or dislodge the crystals. When not wearing the watch, store it in its original box or a soft pouch to protect it from dust and potential damage.
- Temperature Extremes: Protect your watch from extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, as these can affect the battery life and the integrity of internal components.
- Chemicals: Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, detergents, and other chemicals, as these can cause discoloration or damage to the metal finish and crystals.
- Battery Replacement: When the battery eventually runs out, it is recommended to have it replaced by a professional watch technician to ensure proper sealing for water resistance and to avoid damage to the movement.
