FAQs

Does the watch have a ticking sound?

Like many quartz movements, there is a faint ticking sound that is typical for this class of timepiece.

Can I replace the watch strap?

Yes, the watch uses standard spring bars, allowing you to switch to different straps that match the lug width.

How long does the battery last?

Battery life varies based on usage, particularly how often the INDIGLO feature is activated, but typically lasts 2-3 years.

Is the watch display scratch-resistant?

The watch uses a standard mineral glass crystal, which is durable but can be scratched by abrasive materials.

Is the watch suitable for deep-sea diving?

No, this watch is rated for 30 meters of water resistance and is not suitable for diving or heavy water pressure.

Troubleshooting

The INDIGLO light is dim or not working.

This is often a sign of a low battery. Replace the battery to restore full illumination brightness.

The watch hands are moving, but the time is not accurate.

Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the time continues to drift, the battery may need replacement.

Condensation under the crystal.

This indicates water ingress. Remove the watch from your wrist immediately and take it to a professional service center for drying and seal inspection.
