OPERATING AND ADJUSTING YOUR WATCH

Your quartz analogue watch is powered by a battery

which was inserted at the time of manufacture and will

require periodic replacement. New batteries can be

supplied and fitted by your nearest SEKONDA stockist.

Quartz analogue watches do NOT

require winding.

The button is used for hand/function setting only. When

in use, ensure that the button is pushed FULLY IN to

position “A”. Failure to do so can result in excessive

battery drain or damage to the hand setting/date

mechanism.

The instructions and diagrams on the following pages

are designed to demonstrate the adjustment of all

models within our range.

Your watch may not have all of the characteristics

shown and may have other buttons and dials in ad-

dition to those shown on individual diagrams.

E.L.D. DISPLAY

• Press PB1 to activate display

(Display only visible in subdued light).

Note: Display should only be activated for

short periods, e.g. 1 or 2 seconds as excessive

use will greatly reduce the life of the battery.

WATER RESISTANCY

If your watch is water resistant, it will clearly state

“Water Resistant” or have a static water pressure

indication (eg “30/50/100 metres”) on the dial and/or

case back.

If it is NOT marked as water resistant, it should not be

allowed to come into contact with water or be worn in

conditions that could expose it to moisture (eg washing,

heavy rain etc). Certain chemicals in water may

damage the watch seals. To maintain its water

resistance, we recommend that your watch is serviced

and re-sealed at least every 12 months by SEKONDA.

IMPORTANT Buttons must not be operated while in

contact with water.
