FAQs
Can I replace the stainless steel bracelet with a leather strap?
Yes, the Stretto features standard lugs that allow you to swap the metal bracelet for any third-party strap of the appropriate width.
Is this watch suitable for swimming?
No. The 50-meter water resistance is meant for accidental splashes or rain, not for submersion or swimming.
How do I wind the watch manually?
With the crown in the neutral position (pushed all the way in), rotate it clockwise to manually wind the mainspring.
What is the benefit of the hacking feature?
Hacking stops the second hand when the crown is fully pulled out, allowing you to synchronize the time exactly to a reference clock.
Does the dial have luminescence?
The Stretto focuses on a clean dress-watch aesthetic and does not feature luminescent coating on the hands or markers.
Troubleshooting
Watch stops running after sitting for a day.
The power reserve is 40 hours. If the watch stops, manually wind the crown 10-15 times to build energy.
Date is displaying incorrectly.
Ensure the date was not adjusted during the 'danger zone' (between 9 PM and 3 AM) to avoid damaging the internal date-change mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel bracelet and case with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove sweat and skin oils.
- Water Exposure: While the watch is water-resistant to 50 meters, avoid wearing it while swimming, showering, or using high-pressure water sources, as seals can degrade over time.
- Storage: Store away from strong magnetic fields (like speakers or large electronic transformers) to maintain timekeeping accuracy.
