FAQs

What does 50 meters water resistance mean?

A 50-meter water resistance rating means the watch is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or snorkeling, or for use in hot showers or saunas.

How do I set the time and date on my Sekonda Classic watch?

To set the time, pull the crown out to the furthest position and turn it. To set the day/date, pull the crown out to the first position (halfway) and turn it. Always push the crown back in completely when finished to ensure water resistance.

Is the stainless steel bracelet adjustable?

Yes, the stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by removing or adding links to achieve a comfortable fit. For best results and to avoid damage, we recommend having this service performed by a professional jeweler or watch technician.

What type of movement does this watch have?

This Sekonda Classic watch features a reliable quartz movement, which uses a battery and a vibrating quartz crystal to keep accurate time.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

The lifespan of a watch battery can vary but typically lasts 2-3 years. When the watch stops running, it's time for a battery replacement. We advise having this done by a professional to ensure the correct battery type is used and the water resistance seal is maintained.

Can I wear this watch in the shower?

It is generally not recommended to wear a 50-meter water-resistant watch in the shower. Hot water, steam, and soaps can compromise the watch's seals over time, leading to water ingress.

How do I clean my stainless steel watch?

Clean your watch regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For the bracelet, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can help clean between links. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Dry thoroughly afterwards.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not keeping accurate time or has stopped.

This usually indicates a low or depleted battery. Take your watch to a professional jeweler or watch repair service for a battery replacement. Ensure they check the water-resistant seal when opening the case.

Day or date display is not changing or is incorrect.

Ensure the crown is pulled out to the first position (halfway) and rotate it to adjust the day and date correctly. If setting the date, avoid adjusting between 9 PM and 3 AM as this is when the mechanism is engaged in changing the date. If the issue persists, a watch service may be required.

Moisture or condensation appears under the crystal.

This suggests a breach in the watch's water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a professional watch repair service. Do not attempt to dry it yourself, as moisture can damage internal components.

Bracelet feels too tight or too loose.

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links. This process requires specialized tools and expertise, so it is highly recommended to have a professional jeweler or watch technician perform the resizing to prevent damage.

Crown is difficult to pull out or turn.

Apply gentle, firm pressure when pulling out the crown. If it remains stiff or jammed, do not force it, as this could damage the stem. Seek assistance from a professional watch repair service.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable stainless steel construction for longevity
  • Water-resistant for everyday splashes and rain
  • Reliable quartz movement for accurate timekeeping

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

  1. Setting the Time: Gently pull out the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) to the furthest position. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise until the hands indicate the correct time. Push the crown back in completely to start the watch.
  2. Setting the Day/Date: Pull the crown out to the first position (halfway). Turn the crown in one direction to adjust the date and in the other direction to adjust the day. If adjusting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, it is best to set it to the previous day and then advance the time to avoid potential mechanism issues. Once set, push the crown back in completely.
  3. Bracelet Resizing: The stainless steel bracelet may need to be adjusted to fit your wrist comfortably. This typically involves removing links. We recommend having this done by a professional jeweler or watch repair service to avoid damage.

Compatibility

This watch is designed for general adult wear. Its classic style makes it suitable for most personal fashion preferences and occasions.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning: To clean your watch, wipe the case and bracelet gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which can damage the finish.
  • Water Resistance: Remember the 50-meter water resistance limit. While it can handle splashes and brief immersion, do not operate the crown underwater. Always ensure the crown is pushed in completely after setting the time/date to maintain water resistance.
  • Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose your watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement and the integrity of the seals.
  • Storage: When not wearing your watch, store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields, which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
  • Battery Replacement: The quartz movement is powered by a battery. When the watch stops, it's time for a battery replacement. We recommend having this done by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper battery type and seal integrity for water resistance.
