resulting in color smears or discoloration.

○ When the band becomes less flexible or cracked, replace the band with a new one.

swimming, and when working with water even if the watch itself is water-resistant
enforced for daily use (10-BAR water resistant).
Adjust the band to allow a little clearance with your wrist to
ensure proper airflow. When wearing the watch, leave enough
room to insert a finger between the band and your wrist.
