FAQs

What does 'water-resistant up to 330 feet' mean?

This means the watch can withstand pressures equivalent to a depth of 330 feet (100 meters). It is suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and recreational diving, but not for deep-sea diving which requires watches with higher ratings.

How do I set the GMT hand?

First, unscrew the crown. Pull the crown out one click to the intermediate position. Rotate the crown (often clockwise, consult your specific model's instructions) to adjust the GMT (24-hour) hand to your desired second time zone. Once set, push the crown fully in and screw it down securely.

Is this an automatic (self-winding) watch?

No, the STÜHRLING Meridian GMT features a 'Quartz movement', which means it is powered by a battery and does not self-wind. It offers ultra-precision and reliability.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

Typically, the battery in a quartz watch lasts between 2 to 3 years. When it's time for a replacement, it's recommended to have it done by a qualified watchmaker to ensure the watch's water resistance is maintained.

What is a 'screw-down crown'?

A screw-down crown is a watch crown that threads into the watch case, forming a watertight seal when tightened. This design significantly enhances the watch's water resistance and protects the internal movement from moisture and dust.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running or has stopped.

Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it still doesn't run, the battery may need replacement. Contact a qualified watchmaker for battery service.

Time is inaccurate or losing/gaining time significantly.

Ensure the crown is fully screwed down. Exposure to strong magnetic fields can affect accuracy; try moving it away from magnets. If the issue persists, the quartz movement might need service or recalibration by a professional.

Condensation or moisture is visible inside the crystal.

This indicates a breach in the watch's water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a professional watchmaker for inspection and repair to prevent further damage to the movement.

Crown is difficult to screw down or feels loose.

Ensure no dirt or debris is obstructing the threads. If it still doesn't screw down smoothly or feels loose, the crown or case tube may be damaged. Seek professional repair to maintain water resistance and functionality.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Unscrew the Crown: Gently rotate the crown counter-clockwise until it releases from the case.
  2. Set the Time: Pull the crown out to the furthest position. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands. Push the crown back in one click.
  3. Set the GMT Hand (24-hour hand): In this intermediate crown position, rotating the crown in one direction (usually clockwise, refer to specific model instructions if available) will adjust the GMT hand. Set it to your desired second time zone or UTC.
  4. Screw Down the Crown: Once all settings are complete, push the crown fully back against the case and rotate it clockwise while applying gentle pressure until it is securely tightened. This is crucial for maintaining water resistance.

Compatibility

This watch is a standalone timepiece and does not require compatibility with other devices. Its classic design makes it a versatile accessory that complements a wide range of personal styles.

Product Care

  • Water Resistance: Always ensure the screw-down crown is fully tightened before any exposure to water to maintain its 330 feet (100 meters) water resistance.
  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and strap regularly. For deeper cleaning, mild soap can be used, but always rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry completely.
  • Avoid Extremes: Protect your watch from extreme temperatures (hot or cold), direct impacts, and strong magnetic fields, which can affect its accuracy.
  • Battery Replacement: As a quartz watch, it will require battery replacement typically every 2-3 years. It is recommended to have this service performed by a qualified watchmaker to ensure proper re-sealing and water resistance.
  • Strap Care: If your watch has a leather strap, avoid prolonged exposure to water and direct sunlight to prevent damage. For metal bracelets, regular cleaning can prevent dirt buildup.
