FAQs

Is the leather strap interchangeable?

Yes, the watch uses standard lug widths, allowing you to swap the leather strap for other styles that fit the lug size.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

No. While it is water-resistant up to 5 bars, it is not designed for swimming, diving, or prolonged water immersion.

What battery does this watch use?

It uses a standard quartz watch battery, which typically lasts 2-3 years depending on usage.

Is the dial readable in low light?

The watch does not feature luminous hands or a backlight, so it is best viewed in well-lit environments.

Is the watch suitable for very large wrists?

The 26mm dial is designed to be compact and dainty; those with larger wrists may find it significantly undersized.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped ticking

The battery likely requires replacement. Take the watch to a professional jeweler or watch repair service.

Leather strap feels stiff

Leather requires a break-in period. Wear the watch regularly, and the natural oils from your skin will soften the strap.

Condensation under the crystal

This indicates a seal failure or exposure beyond the watch's water resistance rating. Seek professional service immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Slim, minimalist silhouette perfect for stacking with bracelets
  • High-quality stainless steel construction for durability
  • Classic vintage design that transcends temporary trends
  • Comfortable, flexible leather strap suitable for all-day wear
  • Reliable water resistance for daily use

Cons

  • Small 26mm face may be difficult to read for those with vision impairments
  • Leather strap requires periodic replacement due to natural wear
  • Limited to analog timekeeping without date or chronograph features

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, simply pull the crown located on the side of the case to the extended position and rotate it clockwise or counter-clockwise until the hands reach the desired time, then push the crown back in.

For care, wipe the stainless steel case with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils and dirt. The brown leather strap should be kept away from excessive moisture; if the leather becomes wet, pat it dry immediately with a clean cloth and allow it to air dry away from direct heat sources. Over time, the leather will develop a unique patina, which is a normal characteristic of the material.
