Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the watch completely waterproof?

It is water-resistant up to 100 meters, meaning it is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but it is not intended for deep-sea diving.

Does this watch require battery replacements?

No, it features a solar-powered system that recharges using light, removing the need for conventional battery changes.

Can the leather strap be replaced?

Yes, the strap uses standard lug attachments, allowing for replacement with any compatible watch band of the correct width.

How do I use the chronograph function?

Typically, you use the buttons on the side of the case to start, stop, and reset the stopwatch hands according to the manual instructions.

What is the benefit of the titanium carbide coating?

The coating provides an additional layer of protection against minor scratches and abrasions, helping the case maintain its appearance over time.

Troubleshooting

Watch stops running after being stored in a dark drawer.

Expose the watch dial to a bright light source for several hours to recharge the internal power cell.

Hands are difficult to see in the dark.

Ensure the watch face has been exposed to bright light during the day, which charges the luminous coating on the hands and markers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable solar-powered movement avoids frequent battery changes
  • Durable stainless steel case with protective titanium carbide coating
  • High-contrast dial with luminous elements for readability
  • Professional design suitable for both casual and formal settings
  • Strong 100-meter water resistance

Cons

  • Leather strap may require more maintenance than metal links
  • Luminous coating requires exposure to light to glow effectively
  • Chronograph functions can be complex for those unfamiliar with analog stopwatches

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your timepiece, keep the solar panel exposed to light sources regularly. Avoid storing the watch in total darkness for extended periods, as this will deplete the power reserve. To set the time, pull the crown out to the appropriate click position and rotate; ensure the crown is pushed fully back in to maintain the water-resistant seal. For the leather strap, wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth periodically to remove sweat or residue. If the watch undergoes heavy exposure to water, rinse it gently with fresh water and pat dry with a soft cloth.
