FAQs

What does 'splashproof' water resistance mean?

'Splashproof' means the watch can withstand minor splashes of water, such as light rain or when washing your hands. It is not designed for showering, bathing, swimming, or any activity where it might be submerged in water.

How often does the battery need to be replaced?

Info needed: Typical battery life for this model. Generally, quartz watch batteries last 1 to 3 years depending on usage. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician.

Can I adjust the bracelet size myself?

While some basic link removal tools are available, it is generally recommended to have the bracelet size adjusted by a professional jeweler or watch repair service to prevent damage to the links or the watch.

How should I clean the stone-set bezel?

Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the bezel and stones. Avoid using any liquid cleaners directly on the stones or harsh brushes, as these could dislodge them or damage the setting. For deeper cleaning, consult a professional.

Is the two-tone finish durable?

The ion-plated two-tone finish is designed for durability in normal use. However, like any plated item, it can be susceptible to wear over time, especially with exposure to chemicals, abrasives, or harsh impacts. Proper care, as outlined in the care section, will help maintain its appearance.

What is the warranty period for this watch?

Info needed: Specific warranty information. Sekonda watches typically come with a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Please refer to your purchase documentation or Sekonda's official website for detailed warranty terms and conditions.

Troubleshooting

Watch is not running

Ensure the crown is pushed in completely. If the watch still doesn't run, the battery may need replacement. This typically requires professional assistance.

Time is incorrect or stops randomly

Re-set the time according to the 'Setting the Time' instructions. Make sure the crown is fully pushed in after setting. If the issue persists, it might indicate a low battery or a mechanical issue requiring professional inspection.

Bracelet feels too tight or too loose

The bracelet may need adjustment to fit your wrist comfortably. This usually involves removing or adding links. It is recommended to have this done by a professional jeweler or watch repair service to avoid damaging the bracelet.

Stones on the bezel appear loose or have fallen out

Small stones can occasionally come loose, especially after impacts. If a stone is loose, avoid wearing the watch until it can be secured by a professional jeweler or watch repair specialist. If stones have fallen out, they may be replaceable by a professional.

Watch finish appears dull or tarnished

Gently clean the watch with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, lotions, or perfumes, which can tarnish the finish over time. Regular cleaning and proper storage will help maintain its shine. If tarnishing is severe, professional cleaning might be necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant and Versatile Design: The two-tone gold and silver combination allows it to complement a wide range of outfits and other jewelry.
  • Luxurious Detail: The stone-set bezel adds a sophisticated and eye-catching element.
  • Clear Readability: The white dial and distinct hands make telling time effortless.
  • Comfortable Wear: The alloy bracelet is designed for comfortable daily use.

Cons

  • Limited Water Resistance: Only splashproof, meaning it cannot be worn for swimming, showering, or any water immersion.
  • Alloy Material: While durable, alloy may be more prone to scratching than stainless steel if not properly cared for.
  • Rectangular Shape: The unique rectangular case might not appeal to everyone's preference for watch shapes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting the Time

  1. Pull the Crown: Gently pull the small crown (the knob on the side of the watch case) outwards until you feel a small click. This often disengages the time-setting mechanism.
  2. Adjust Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
  3. Push Crown In: Once the time is set, push the crown back in firmly until it sits flush against the watch case. This will engage the watch movement and start the timekeeping.

Compatibility

This watch is a standalone accessory and does not require compatibility with other devices.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure your Sekonda Monica watch remains in excellent condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. For light grime, a slightly damp cloth can be used on the metal parts only, ensuring no water enters the watch case. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Water Exposure: Remember its 'splashproof' rating. Avoid showering, bathing, swimming, or diving with the watch. Remove it before washing hands vigorously or engaging in activities that might submerge it.
  • Protect from Impacts: While durable, the watch can be damaged by hard impacts. Avoid dropping it or striking it against hard surfaces.
  • Chemicals: Keep the watch away from perfumes, cosmetics, solvents, and other chemicals, as they can damage the finish and potentially the internal components.
  • Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect battery life and internal mechanisms.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider storing it in its original box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches.
