FAQs

What type of movement does the Maserati Velocita watch use?

The watch utilizes a reliable quartz movement, known for its accuracy and low maintenance.

Is this watch suitable for swimming?

Yes, with a water resistance of 10 ATM (100 meters), it is suitable for swimming and other water-related activities.

How do I adjust the stainless steel bracelet?

Adjusting the stainless steel bracelet typically involves removing or adding links. This is best done by a professional watchmaker or jeweler to ensure proper fit and maintain the bracelet's integrity.

What is the warranty period for this watch?

The R8873652004 comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty.

Can I use the chronograph function while swimming?

It is generally recommended not to operate the pushers or crown while the watch is submerged in water, even within its water-resistant rating, to prevent water ingress.

What does the tachymeter bezel do?

The tachymeter bezel is used in conjunction with the chronograph to calculate speed or distance. For example, you can time a mile run and then read the average speed directly from the bezel.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running

Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch has stopped completely, the battery may need replacement.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure the date is set when the hour hand is in the lower half of the dial (past 12 o'clock) to avoid setting it during the AM/PM transition.

Chronograph hands are not resetting to zero

This may require adjustment by a qualified watchmaker. Ensure the chronograph is fully reset before next use.

Condensation under the crystal

This indicates a potential loss of water resistance. Have the watch inspected by a professional immediately to prevent internal damage.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Clean the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the surfaces.
  • Water Resistance: After exposure to saltwater or chlorine, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly. Ensure the crown is pushed in before exposing to water.
  • Storage: Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve its appearance.
  • Battery: The quartz movement will require a battery replacement typically every 2-3 years. Consult a professional watchmaker for battery changes to maintain water resistance.
