4.1 Moviment automàtic

The Timex M79 utilizes a 21-jewel automatic movement, which means it is self-winding. The movement of your wrist powers the watch. When fully wound, it has a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop. Simply pick it up, gently shake it, or manually wind it to restart.

4.2 Resistència a l'aigua

This watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This rating makes it suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, showering, or washing hands. It is no suitable for diving, snorkeling, or prolonged water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

The M79 features a unidirectional rotating bezel, meaning it only turns in one direction (counter-clockwise). This feature is useful for timing events, such as elapsed time during recreational swimming. To use:

1. Rotate the bezel so the triangle marker aligns with the minute hand.
2. As time passes, the minute hand will indicate the elapsed time against the bezel's markings.

5. Manteniment

5.1 Neteja

Regular cleaning helps maintain your watch's appearance and longevity. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and bracelet. For the stainless steel bracelet, a soft brush with mild soap and water can be used, ensuring to rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

The watch features an acrylic domed crystal, which provides a vintage aesthetic but can be more prone to scratches than sapphire crystals. Minor scratches can often be buffed out using a specialized acrylic polish. For deeper scratches, professional assistance may be required.
