Product Information

Full details

This Casio YOUTH Series STANDARD watch is designed for individuals seeking a durable, functional, and stylish digital timepiece for everyday wear. Its key benefit is the combination of essential features like a stopwatch, alarm, and LED illuminator, housed in a robust yet lightweight plastic case with a comfortable silicone strap. A potential caveat for some users might be the 32mm dial size, which is on the smaller side for those preferring a larger watch face. The watch offers reliable quartz movement, automatic calendar, 12/24 hour format, and 50-meter water resistance.

FAQs

What is the water resistance rating of this watch?

This watch has a water resistance rating of 5 bar, which means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. It is not recommended for swimming or diving.

How do I set the time and date?

To set the time and date, you typically need to press the 'Adjust' button to enter setting mode, use the 'Mode' button to cycle through hours, minutes, date, and day, and the 'Start/Stop' button to change the values. Refer to the specific user manual for the exact button sequence.

Is the strap adjustable?

Yes, the silicone strap features a buckle closure and has multiple holes to adjust the fit. The circumference range is 165-235 mm.

What type of battery does this watch use?

This watch uses a standard watch battery, typically a coin cell. The exact type is usually indicated in the watch's user manual. Battery replacement should be done by a professional to maintain water resistance.

Can I replace the acrylic glass if it gets scratched?

Yes, the acrylic glass can be replaced. It is recommended to have this done by a qualified watch repair service to ensure the watch is properly resealed and maintains its water resistance.

Is the watch suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the watch is described as anti-allergic due to its nickel-free composition, making it generally suitable for individuals with sensitive skin.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running.

Ensure the battery is correctly inserted. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement. Contact a service center.

Display is dim or not visible.

Press the illuminator button to check if it activates. If it's still dim, the battery may be low. If the display is completely off, check if the watch is in a mode where the display is intentionally off or the battery needs replacement.

Buttons are unresponsive.

Ensure the buttons are not stuck. Clean around the buttons with a soft brush. If they remain unresponsive, seek professional service.

Alarm or stopwatch not working correctly.

Verify that the alarm or stopwatch has been correctly set and activated according to the user manual. Ensure you are in the correct mode for the function you are trying to use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Setting the Time and Date: Press the appropriate buttons (refer to the watch manual for specific button functions: often Mode, Adjust, Light, Start/Stop) to enter time-setting mode. Use the Start/Stop button to cycle through hours, minutes, seconds, date, month, and day. Use the Adjust button to change the values and the Mode button to confirm and exit.
  2. Setting the Alarm: Navigate to alarm mode using the Mode button. Use the Adjust button to set the alarm time and the Start/Stop button to turn the alarm on or off.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Clean the watch case and silicone strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the plastic and acrylic. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
  • Water Resistance: While rated for 5 bar, avoid prolonged submersion and do not operate the buttons while the watch is wet. For activities involving significant water exposure (swimming, showering), consider a watch with higher water resistance.
  • Strap Care: Rinse the silicone strap with fresh water after exposure to sweat or salt water to prevent degradation. Ensure the strap is dry before wearing.
  • Battery Replacement: Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to maintain water resistance and prevent damage.
