Does this watch have a stopwatch feature?

Troubleshooting

Display is faint or flickering

The battery is likely reaching the end of its life and needs to be replaced.

Watch does not beep on the hour or for alarms

Check if the mute function is enabled or if the alarm feature is set to 'off' in the settings menu.

Moisture inside the watch face
