FAQs

What does 'Quartz Chronograph Movement' mean?

A quartz chronograph movement means the watch is powered by a battery and a vibrating quartz crystal, providing highly accurate timekeeping. The 'chronograph' part refers to its stopwatch function, allowing you to measure intervals of time independently of the main time display.

Can I wear my Hugo BOSS Velocity watch while swimming?

Yes, with its 100 Metres (10 ATM) water resistance, you can wear this watch while showering or swimming. However, it is not suitable for scuba diving or high-impact water sports that might exceed its pressure rating.

What is Sapphire Crystal Glass?

Sapphire crystal is a highly durable and scratch-resistant material used for watch faces. It is significantly harder than mineral glass, offering superior protection against scratches from daily wear and tear, ensuring the dial remains clear.

How do I clean the rubber/silicone strap?

To clean the strap, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap if necessary. Gently wipe down the strap, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water and allow it to air dry completely before wearing the watch again.

How do I ensure the watch remains water resistant?

Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and securely closed before exposing the watch to water. Avoid operating the pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged. Regular maintenance and professional battery replacement are also crucial to re-seal the watch properly.

Is the strap interchangeable?

While the watch comes with a black rubber/silicone strap, it may be possible to replace it with other straps of the same lug width. It's recommended to consult a professional watchmaker to ensure proper fit and to avoid damaging the case.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not keeping accurate time or has stopped.

This is typically a sign of a depleted battery. Take your watch to a certified watchmaker or service center for a battery replacement to ensure water resistance is maintained.

Chronograph hands are not resetting to zero properly.

Many quartz chronographs have a reset procedure for the hands. Consult your watch's specific instruction manual for the correct sequence, which usually involves pulling the crown out and using the pushers to realign the hands.

The date is not changing at midnight.

Ensure the watch's time is set correctly, differentiating between AM and PM. If the date changes at noon, the time is 12 hours out. Also, avoid setting the date manually during the 'danger zone' (typically 9 PM - 3 AM) as this can interfere with the date change mechanism.

Pros- Reliable Quartz Movement: Ensures accurate timekeeping with minimal maintenance.- Chronograph Functionality: Ideal for timing events or as a sports accessory.- Excellent Water Resistance: Suitable for swimming and everyday water exposure up to 100 meters.- Durable Materials: Features a robust stainless steel case and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.- Secure and Comfortable Strap: The rubber/silicone strap with deployment clasp offers comfort and peace of mind.### Cons- Large Case Size: The 44.5mm diameter might feel oversized on smaller wrists.- Specific Aesthetic: The sporty yet elegant design may not appeal to all tastes or suit all formal occasions.

Setup- Setting Time: Pull the crown out to the furthest position. Rotate the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Push the crown back in completely when finished.- Setting Date: Pull the crown out to the first position. Rotate the crown to adjust the date. *Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.* Push the crown back in completely.- Securing the Strap: The deployment clasp allows for a secure fit. To fasten, close the clasp until you hear a click. To adjust the strap length, you may need a small tool to unfasten the pin on the buckle or have a professional adjust it.### CompatibilityThis watch is designed as a standalone accessory and does not require compatibility with other electronic devices. It is suitable for daily wear, from casual outings to moderately active pursuits, complementing a wide range of attire.### Care- Cleaning: Wipe the case and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils. For the silicone strap, mild soap and water can be used, ensuring it's thoroughly rinsed and dried afterward.- Water Exposure: While water resistant to 100 meters, always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. After exposure to chlorinated or saltwater, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly.- Avoid Extreme Conditions: Do not expose the watch to extreme temperatures (hot baths, saunas) or harsh chemicals (solvents, detergents), as these can damage the seals and materials.- Battery Replacement: As a quartz watch, it relies on a battery. If the watch stops or the chronograph function becomes erratic, it may indicate a low battery. Seek professional replacement to maintain water resistance integrity.
