FAQs

What does '30 metres water resistance' mean?

30 metres (or 3ATM) water resistance means the watch is protected against incidental contact with water, such as splashes, rain, or brief immersion of hands. It is not suitable for swimming, showering, bathing, or diving.

How do I set the time and date?

Gently pull the crown out. For the date/day, pull to the first position and rotate. For the time, pull to the second position and rotate. Ensure you push the crown back in fully after setting to maintain water resistance.

Can I replace the bracelet with a different strap?

While technically possible, it depends on the lug width of the watch. This information is not provided. We recommend consulting a jeweler or watch specialist for strap changes to ensure compatibility and avoid damaging the watch case.

Is this an automatic or quartz watch?

The product description does not specify the movement type. Sekonda watches are typically reliable quartz movements, which means they are battery-powered and offer accurate timekeeping with minimal maintenance. Info needed: [Movement type if explicitly known]

How do I clean the watch and bracelet?

Wipe the watch case and bracelet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For more stubborn dirt on the stainless steel, a lightly dampened cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What is the adjustable strap length?

The stainless steel bracelet has an adjustable length, suitable for wrist sizes ranging from 145mm to 205mm. Links can be removed or added by a professional to achieve the perfect fit.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running or has stopped.

Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch is still not running, the battery may need to be replaced. Consult a professional watch technician.

Date or day changes at noon, not midnight.

This indicates the time is set 12 hours out. Pull the crown to the time-setting position (second position) and advance the time by 12 hours. Then, push the crown back in.

Water appears inside the watch or fogging occurs.

This indicates a breach in water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a professional watchmaker for inspection and repair to prevent further damage to the movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust Durability: Stainless steel case and bracelet ensure long-lasting wear.
  • Clear Timekeeping: Matte black dial with day/date and 24-hour markers offers excellent readability.
  • Versatile Style: Blends classic and contemporary elements, suitable for both casual and formal settings.
  • Practical Functions: Day/date display and 24-hour markers enhance daily utility.
  • Comfortable for Most Wrists: Adjustable strap length provides a secure and comfortable fit.

Cons

  • Limited Water Resistance: Not suitable for swimming, showering, or prolonged water immersion (rated at 30m).
  • No Luminous Features Mentioned: The description does not indicate luminous hands or markers, which might affect readability in low light conditions.
  • No Advanced Complications: Focuses on core timekeeping and date functions, lacking features like chronographs or world timers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting Time and Date

  1. Pull out the Crown: Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch) to the first or second position.
  • First Position (for Date/Day): Rotate the crown to adjust the day and/or date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this is when the watch's internal mechanisms are engaged in changing the date.
  • Second Position (for Time): Pull the crown out further to the second position. Rotate it to set the correct time.
  1. Push in the Crown: Once time and date are set, push the crown back in fully against the watch case to start the watch and ensure water resistance.

Bracelet Adjustment

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links to fit your wrist size (145-205mm). This process typically requires specialized tools and is best performed by a jeweler or watch technician to avoid damage.

Water Resistance and Precautions

  • The watch is water-resistant up to 30 metres (3ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use, resistant to splashes and rain.
  • DO NOT wear the watch while swimming, showering, bathing, or engaging in any water sports.
  • Ensure the crown is always fully pushed in. Adjusting the crown while the watch is wet or submerged will compromise its water resistance.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • Regular Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils.
  • For Stubborn Dirt: Lightly dampen a soft cloth with clean water and gently wipe the stainless steel. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
  • Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Keep the watch away from extreme heat or cold, as this can affect its accuracy and battery life (if quartz).
  • Storage: When not wearing, store the watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields.
