Wipe the watch with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, slightly dampen the cloth with water and gently clean the surface, avoiding the crystal area with excessive moisture.

Is the watch water-resistant?

Yes, it is splash-proof, meaning it can withstand minor exposure to water, like splashes. However, it's not suitable for swimming or showering.

How do I replace the battery?

If you have a quartz model, it's recommended to have a professional watchmaker replace the battery to avoid damaging the watch.

What kind of crystal is used in the watch?

The watch features a flat mineral crystal for clear visibility and scratch resistance.

How do I adjust the bracelet?

You can adjust the bracelet by removing or adding links. This is often best done by a jeweler or watch repair professional.

Bulova watches typically come with a limited warranty. Please refer to your warranty documentation for specific details.

Where can I get my watch serviced?

You can take your watch to an authorized Bulova service center or a reputable watch repair shop.
