This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (10 ATM). This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as light swimming. It is non designed for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water to maintain water resistance.

4. Manutenzione

4.1 Pulizia

  • Pulisci la cassa e il vetro dell'orologio con un panno morbido e asciutto per rimuovere polvere e impronte digitali.
  • For the stainless steel bracelet, use a soft brush and mild soapy water to clean between the links. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a soft cloth.
  • Evitare l'uso di prodotti chimici aggressivi, solventi o detergenti abrasivi, poiché potrebbero danneggiare la finitura dell'orologio.

4.2 Sostituzione della batteria

The watch uses one LR44 battery. The battery life is approximately 3 years. When the battery needs replacement, it is highly recommended to have it replaced by an authorized Bulova service center or a qualified watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and maintain water resistance.

4.3 Regolazione del braccialetto

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by removing or adding links. This procedure requires specialized tools and expertise. It is recommended to have bracelet adjustments performed by an authorized Bulova service center or a professional jeweler to prevent damage to the bracelet or clasp.

5. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

  • Orologio non in esecuzione:

    Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement. Refer to Section 4.2 for battery replacement recommendations.

  • Data non cambia:

    Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle. The date typically changes around midnight. If the date is set manually between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM, it might not change correctly. Adjust the time past 3:00 AM before setting the date.

  • Condensa all'interno del cristallo:

    If you notice condensation under the crystal, it indicates a loss of water resistance. This requires immediate attention from an authorized service center to prevent further damage to the movement.
