Troubleshooting
Watch is not keeping accurate time.
Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement.
Date is not changing correctly.
Verify that the time is set correctly past midnight. If the date changes during the day, you may need to re-set the time past noon (12 PM).
Luminous hands are not glowing.
Luminous hands need to be 'charged' by exposure to light. Ensure the watch has been exposed to sufficient light during the day for the lume to be visible in darkness.
Strap feels uncomfortable or too loose/tight.
Adjust the pin buckle to a different hole on the textile strap for a better fit. If needed, consider purchasing an alternative 20mm watch strap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Pull the crown out to the first position to adjust the date. Rotate it until the correct date is displayed.
- Pull the crown out to the second position to adjust the time. Rotate it to set the correct hour and minute.

- Water Resistance: While rated at 5 bars, avoid prolonged immersion in water. Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine. Ensure the crown is pushed fully in before exposure to moisture.
- Storage: Store the watch in its original gift box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches when not in use.
