Important Notes
This product is shipped directly from Japan and includes original packaging and accessories. The included lithium metal battery is pre-installed and rechargeable via solar exposure—no tools or disassembly required. For warranty details, customers are advised to refer to the official documentation provided with the product, as warranty terms may vary by region. While the watch is designed for high durability, it should be rinsed with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine to maintain optimal condition and prevent long-term corrosion. Always ensure the crown is fully tightened before water exposure to preserve the integrity of the water-resistant seal. This item is intended for men and may not be suitable for smaller wrist sizes due to its robust case design. Please note that while the watch is built to military-grade shock resistance standards, it is not indestructible and should be handled with reasonable care. The radio wave reception may vary depending on location and environmental factors, though it typically functions reliably in most inhabited regions.
