FAQs

Is this watch water-resistant?

The watch is designed for everyday wear. While it can withstand minor splashes, it should not be submerged in water or worn while swimming due to the leather strap.

Can I replace the leather strap with a different band?

Yes, you can replace the strap with any aftermarket watch band that matches the lug width of the BMS-300L-1AV.

Does the dial have a backlight?

No, this is a classic analog watch and does not feature an electronic backlight. It relies on ambient light for visibility.

How long does the battery typically last?

Battery life varies based on usage, but most quartz movements of this type last between two to three years.

Is the watch suitable for small wrists?

The Beside series is designed with a moderate case size that fits most wrist sizes comfortably, thanks to the adjustable nature of the leather buckle strap.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped moving

The battery likely needs replacing. Visit a certified watch repair shop to have the battery swapped to avoid damaging the internal movement.

Time is inaccurate

Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the time remains inaccurate, check if the watch has been exposed to strong magnetic objects, which can interfere with the quartz motor.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, pull the crown out to the second click and rotate it until the hands indicate the correct hour and minute, then push the crown back in securely. For maintenance, keep the watch away from magnetic fields to preserve timekeeping accuracy. To care for the leather strap, avoid contact with perfumes, oils, or heavy moisture, as these can cause the material to degrade or discolor. If the strap gets wet, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth and let it air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
