Its key benefit is the eco-friendly solar movement that eliminates the need for battery changes, offering up to 5 months of power on a full charge.

FAQs

How long does the watch run on a full charge?

The watch can run for up to 5 months on a single full charge, provided it is kept exposed to light.

What type of crystal does the watch have?

The watch features a durable sapphire crystal, known for its scratch resistance.

Can I swim with this watch?

The watch has water resistance suitable for daily wear and accidental splashes. It is not designed for swimming or diving.

How do I adjust the stainless steel bracelet?

Links can be removed from the stainless steel bracelet to achieve a customized fit. This is best done by a professional jeweler or watch technician.

Does the solar movement require special maintenance?

No, the solar movement is low-maintenance. The primary requirement is to expose the watch to light regularly to keep it charged. Avoid storing it in complete darkness for extended periods.

What does 'chronograph' mean?

A chronograph is a type of watch with a stopwatch function. It allows you to measure elapsed time independently of the main timekeeping function.

Is the black finish on the case and bracelet durable?

The black stainless steel finish is designed for durability in everyday wear. However, like all finishes, it can be susceptible to scratches or wear over time with heavy use.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

The watch likely needs to be recharged. Expose it to a bright light source (preferably sunlight) for at least 16 hours. If the issue persists after a full charge, contact customer support.

Chronograph hands are not returning to zero.

This may require resetting the chronograph mechanism. Consult the specific user manual for your model or contact an authorized service center for adjustment.

The watch fogs up internally.

This indicates potential moisture ingress, which compromises water resistance. Seek immediate professional servicing from an authorized watchmaker.

Bracelet clasp is difficult to open or close.

Ensure there are no obstructions. If the mechanism feels stiff, clean the clasp area gently with a soft brush and dry cloth. If it remains difficult, consult a jeweler for adjustment or lubrication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup:

Charge the Watch: Expose the watch to a bright light source (natural sunlight is best) for at least 16 hours to ensure a full initial charge. The watch may stop if it has been in storage for an extended period.
Set the Time and Date: Pull the crown out to the appropriate position (usually the first or second click, refer to the specific watch manual) and set the correct time and date.

Compatibility:

This watch is a standalone timepiece and does not require connection to external devices or software.

Care Instructions:

Cleaning: Gently wipe the watch case and bracelet with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Charging: Ensure the watch is regularly exposed to light. While it can be charged by indoor light, direct sunlight is more efficient. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat.
Strap Adjustment: If the bracelet is too loose or too tight, links can be removed by a qualified jeweler or watch technician to achieve a custom fit.
Water Resistance: Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet. After exposure to saltwater or chemicals, rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly.
