Setup:
- Setting Time and Date: To set the time, gently pull the crown out to the second click. Turn the crown to adjust the hour and minute hands. For the day/date, pull the crown out to the first click (if applicable). Turn the crown to cycle through the day and date until correct. *Avoid adjusting the day/date manually between 9 PM and 3 AM as this can interfere with the automatic change mechanism.* Once set, push the crown back in fully to engage the watch and restore water resistance.
- Adjusting Bracelet Size: The stainless steel bracelet has adjustable links to customize the fit. For optimal comfort, you may need to add or remove links. This process often requires specialized tools and is best performed by a jeweler or watch specialist to prevent scratching or damage.
Compatibility:
As a classic analog watch, the Sekonda Jones Watch requires no electronic compatibility. Its versatile design complements a wide range of attire, from professional business wear to more relaxed casual outfits.
Care:
- Water Resistance: The 50m water resistance rating means the watch is suitable for splashes, rain, and recreational swimming. However, it is *not* intended for diving, hot showers, saunas, or extended periods in hot tubs, as extreme temperature changes can compromise the seals. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any water exposure and avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet.
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe the watch case and bracelet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove dirt, sweat, and oils. For a more thorough cleaning of the stainless steel components, a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be used, followed immediately by thorough drying with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or ultrasonic cleaners.
- Storage: When not being worn, store your watch in its original Sekonda box or a soft pouch to protect it from dust, scratches, and impacts. Keep it away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, large motors), extreme temperatures, and direct sunlight, which can affect the movement and dial over time.
- Battery Replacement: Info needed: This watch likely utilizes a quartz movement. When the battery eventually runs out, it is strongly recommended to have it replaced by a professional watchmaker. This ensures the correct battery type is installed and, critically, that the watch's water resistance is properly resealed and tested after the case back is opened.
