FAQs
Is this watch suitable for deep-sea diving?
No, while it is 10-bar water-resistant, it is designed for swimming and surface water sports, not professional deep-sea diving.
How often does the battery need to be replaced?
Depending on usage, the quartz battery typically lasts between 2 to 3 years.
Can I swap the strap for a different material?
Yes, the standard lug width allows you to fit various aftermarket straps, provided they match the 42mm case lug width.
Does the watch have a luminous dial?
The watch features high-contrast indices inspired by automotive gauges, though visibility in total darkness will depend on the specific light-charging properties of the dial markers.
What does the 24-hour subdial do?
The 24-hour subdial tracks the time in a 24-hour format, helping you differentiate between AM and PM hours at a glance.
Troubleshooting
Watch has stopped running
The battery likely needs replacement. Take the watch to a professional jeweler to avoid damaging the case seal.
Date is displaying incorrectly
Ensure you have advanced the date past the PM cycle; if the date changes at noon instead of midnight, advance the time forward by 12 hours.
Condensation under the crystal
This indicates a compromised seal. Remove the watch from water immediately and have a professional technician service the seals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your watch in optimal condition, set the time and date by gently pulling the crown to the necessary adjustment positions. Ensure the crown is fully pushed back in after adjustment to maintain its water-resistant seal. For care, wipe the stainless steel case periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove sweat and oils. Avoid exposing the watch to harsh chemicals or extreme magnetic fields, which can interfere with the quartz movement. While the watch is water-resistant to 10-bar, it is recommended to have the seal checked by a professional jeweler if you intend to submerge it frequently, especially after battery changes.
