Alarmes múltiples

The watch supports setting multiple independent alarms, providing flexibility for different daily reminders or wake-up times.

To replace, carefully remove the four screws on the stainless steel back plate. Replace the old battery with a new one of the same type. Ensure the gasket is properly seated before re-securing the back plate to maintain water resistance.

This watch boasts a water resistance of 200 meters (20 BAR), making it suitable for swimming, showering, and snorkeling. Do not operate buttons while the watch is submerged in water.

Resistència al xoc

As a G-Shock model, the GD-350-8CR is built with a shock-absorbing structure designed to withstand impacts and vibrations from drops and rough handling. This robust construction ensures reliability in demanding conditions.
