Is this watch suitable for swimming or diving?

How do I clean the gold-tone stainless steel bracelet?

Can I use this watch without pairing it to my smartphone?

What is Multiband 6 timekeeping?
Multiband 6 is a feature that allows the watch to receive standard time radio signals from six transmitters around the world. This ensures highly accurate timekeeping by automatically adjusting the time based on your location.

Troubleshooting
Bluetooth connection fails or is unstable.
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and the watch. Move closer to your phone. Restart both the watch (by pressing the top-left button for a few seconds) and the smartphone. Check if your phone's operating system is up-to-date and compatible with the G-SHOCK Connected app.
Watch display is dim or not showing characters clearly.
The battery may be low. Expose the watch to direct light (sunlight is best) for several hours to recharge the Tough Solar battery. Check the display mode settings to ensure it's not set to a low-power state unintentionally.
Time is inaccurate after manual setting.
If Bluetooth is connected, the time should sync automatically. If not, re-establish the Bluetooth connection. Ensure Multiband 6 is enabled if available in your region and try to manually receive a time signal. Check for any local sources of radio wave interference.
Watch buttons are unresponsive.
Try performing a reset by pressing and holding the top-left button for approximately two seconds. Ensure the watch is not submerged in water when attempting to use buttons, unless specified for that function.
