Important Notes
This model is not discontinued by the manufacturer and remains available for purchase. The included CR2 battery is pre-installed and ready for immediate use. While highly durable, users should avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields or extreme temperature fluctuations to maintain long-term accuracy. Regular cleaning with a soft, dry cloth is recommended to preserve the resin band and case. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and secured when exposed to water to maintain water resistance integrity.
