FAQs

What type of movement does the Form C Chronograph use?

The Form C Chronograph uses a precise and reliable quartz movement.

How water-resistant is this watch?

The watch is water-tight to 5 bar, meaning it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion, but is not suitable for swimming or diving.

Is the crystal scratch-resistant?

Yes, the Form C Chronograph features a rugged sapphire crystal, which is highly resistant to scratches.

What is the case diameter of this watch?

The case diameter is 40mm.

How do I set the time and date?

Pull the crown out to the furthest position to set the time. Pull it to the first click to set the date. Always ensure the crown is pushed back in fully after adjustments.

What does 'chronograph' mean?

A chronograph is a function on a watch that allows it to operate as a stopwatch. It typically includes subdials and pushers to start, stop, and reset the timing function.

Does the watch come with a specific strap?

The product description mentions a silver colour family, suggesting a metal bracelet, but specific strap material details are not provided and may vary.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

The battery likely needs to be replaced. Take the watch to a qualified jeweler for a battery change.

Chronograph buttons are stiff or not working.

Ensure the crown is pushed in fully. If the issue persists, seek professional servicing as debris may have entered the mechanism.

Scratches on the sapphire crystal.

Sapphire crystal is highly scratch-resistant, but not entirely scratch-proof. Minor scuffs may be difficult to remove. Significant damage requires professional repair or replacement.

Condensation under the crystal.

This may indicate a breach in water resistance. Remove the watch from moisture immediately and have it inspected by a professional watchmaker to prevent further damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a quartz watch, the primary setup involves setting the correct time and date. To set the time, pull the crown out to the furthest position and rotate it. To set the date, pull the crown to the first click and rotate. If your model has chronograph functions, familiarize yourself with the pushers for starting, stopping, and resetting the stopwatch.

Compatibility: This is a standalone analog watch and does not have electronic compatibility requirements. Its strap is designed to be compatible with standard watch strap replacement systems, allowing for customization.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
  2. Water Resistance: While water-tight to 5 bar, avoid prolonged submersion. For swimming or diving, a higher water resistance rating is recommended. Ensure the crown is pushed in completely after setting the time or date.
  3. Strap Care: Depending on the strap material (e.g., leather, metal), follow specific care instructions. For leather, avoid excessive moisture. For metal, clean with a soft cloth.
  4. Battery: The quartz movement requires a battery. When the watch begins to lose accuracy or stop, the battery will need professional replacement.
