Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, pull the crown out to the furthest position and rotate until the hands indicate the correct time, then push the crown back in. To wind manually, rotate the crown while in its standard closed position until you feel slight resistance. Because the case features a 5 bar water resistance rating, avoid wearing the watch during water sports, showering, or saunas. To keep the stainless steel finish clean, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe away fingerprints or sweat. Avoid exposure to strong magnetic fields, as these can affect the precision of the automatic movement over time.
