Important Notes
This model is not discontinued by the manufacturer. A lithium-ion battery is included and required for operation. Product dimensions and weight are confirmed as listed. For warranty details, customers should refer to the manufacturer’s official support page. While widely compatible with most wrist sizes due to its adjustable strap, users with very large wrists should verify fit based on the 3.9-inch case width. Always handle with care to maintain the finish and ensure long-term performance. The watch is designed for everyday resilience but should be protected from extreme conditions to preserve its appearance and functionality over time.
