TIMEX, with over 160 years of history, is one of the most recognized brands globally. Founded in 1854 as Waterbury Clock Company in Waterbury, Connecticut, USA, TIMEX has grown to be loved by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Throughout its long history, TIMEX has created numerous innovative technologies and designs, not just products, including the world's first Mickey Mouse watch manufactured in 1931, the acclaimed IRONMAN watch released in 1986, and the world's first full-dial illumination feature, Indiglo night light, introduced in 1992, which overturned conventional wisdom. Looking back at TIMEX's 160-year history as an American brand, it is no exaggeration to say that its many achievements support TIMEX today, making it a universal, versatile, and timeless American brand.

Betrieb
Your TIMEX Waterbury Legacy watch is designed for reliable daily use. Once the time and date are set, the watch will operate continuously as long as the battery has power.
- Zeitmessung: The watch displays hours, minutes, and seconds.
- Datums- und Wochentagsanzeige: The window at the 3 o'clock position shows the current date and day of the week. This will automatically advance at midnight.
- Wasserbeständigkeit: This watch is water-resistant to 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, but not for diving or snorkeling. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
Wartung
Reinigung
To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the metal bracelet, a soft brush and mild soapy water can be used, ensuring to rinse thoroughly and dry immediately. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Batteriewechsel
Your watch is powered by a quartz movement and requires a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump erratically (indicating low battery), it's time for a replacement. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and water resistance.
Pflege der Wasserbeständigkeit
While water-resistant, prolonged exposure to water, extreme temperature changes, or impacts can compromise the seals. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. If condensation appears inside the watch, have it inspected by a professional immediately.
Fehlerbehebung
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |

| Die Uhr läuft nicht. | Die Batterie ist leer oder die Krone wurde herausgezogen. | Push the crown fully in. If it still doesn't run, the battery may need replacement. |
