Product Information
Full details
The Timex Expedition North Capstone Chronograph is a rugged, adventure-ready timepiece designed for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and active individuals who require precise timing and durability in the field. Its key benefits include a highly legible chronograph, the iconic Indiglo backlight for low-light conditions, and a resilient stainless steel construction that stands up to daily wear. While it offers excellent versatility for sports and casual use, it is important to note that its 50-meter water resistance rating is intended for shallow water exposure and light splashes, rather than dedicated diving or high-pressure aquatic activities.

FAQs
Is this watch suitable for swimming?
While it is rated to 50 meters, this indicates it can handle rain, splashes, and brief immersion in water, but it is not intended for swimming or diving.
Does the watch require special charging?
No, this is a standard quartz watch powered by a battery that typically lasts for several years under normal conditions.
What is the purpose of the tonneau shape?
The tonneau shape provides a unique, ergonomic aesthetic that often sits more comfortably on the wrist than standard circular cases while offering increased impact protection.
How do I activate the Indiglo backlight?
Simply press the crown inward toward the case to activate the light.
Can I replace the strap on this watch?
Yes, the watch features standard lug widths that allow for easy replacement with various compatible straps.
Is the watch magnetic resistant?
While standard quartz watches are generally resilient, avoid placing the watch near strong industrial magnets to ensure optimal timing accuracy.
Troubleshooting
The Indiglo backlight is not illuminating.
The battery may be low. If the time is also losing accuracy, take the watch to a professional jeweler to have the battery replaced.
The chronograph hands are not resetting to zero.
Consult your user manual for the 'Chronograph Calibration' procedure, which usually involves pulling the crown and using the pushers to reset the hands.
Watch has stopped running.
Check if the crown is pushed all the way into the case. If so, the battery likely requires replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set the time and date on your watch, pull the crown to the first position to adjust the date, and to the second position to adjust the hour and minute hands. Avoid pulling the crown while the watch is submerged in water to maintain the integrity of the seals. For care, clean the stainless steel case periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove sweat and debris, which can cause buildup over time. While the watch is rated for 50-meter water resistance, it is recommended to rinse it with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent corrosion. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in to keep the watch protected from moisture.
