Canvi de bateria

The watch is powered by a Japanese Quartz movement, requiring a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically (indicating low battery), it is time for a replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

Cura de la corretja

The genuine leather strap will naturally age and develop a unique patina over time. To prolong its life, avoid prolonged exposure to water, sweat, and direct sunlight. If the strap becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
