FAQs
Does this watch have a backlight?
No, the Accurist Origin Chronograph uses applied markers that do not feature internal illumination, relying on ambient light for visibility.
Can I go scuba diving with this watch?
While the watch is water-resistant to 100 metres, it is not a dedicated diving watch and should not be used for deep-sea scuba diving.
What is the warranty period?
The watch comes with a two-year manufacturing warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Is the leather strap replaceable?
Yes, the watch uses a standard lug width, allowing you to easily swap the strap with any compatible aftermarket leather or metal band.
How often should I have the watch serviced?
For a quartz watch, it is recommended to have the seals checked and the battery replaced every two to three years.
Troubleshooting
The chronograph second hand is not resetting to zero
Consult the user manual to perform a chronograph reset calibration, typically done by pulling the crown to the second position and using the pushers to advance the hands.
The watch has stopped ticking
The battery is likely depleted; take the watch to a certified watchmaker to replace the battery to ensure the water-resistant seals are properly reseated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your watch in peak condition, store it in a dry, cool place when not in use. The leather strap should be kept away from excessive moisture to prevent degradation. To set the time, pull the crown to the second position and rotate it clockwise until the desired time is reached; the date can be adjusted by pulling the crown to the first position. For the chronograph, the top pusher typically starts and stops the timer, while the bottom pusher resets it. We recommend periodic professional servicing to check the battery and maintain the integrity of the water-resistant seals.
