How to replace the battery?

Battery replacement must be done by a professional watchmaker or authorized center. Use a battery of the same type. After replacement, it may be necessary to reset the chronograph hands.

Is my Candino C4477 watch waterproof?

The manual does not specify the degree of water resistance. As a precaution, avoid any contact with water. If your watch is marked 'Water Resistant' (e.g., 3 ATM), it is splash resistant but not suitable for swimming.

How to maintain my watch?

Clean the case and strap with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemicals, shocks, strong magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures. Have the water resistance checked periodically.

What to do if the watch stops working?

First check if the battery is dead (replacement needed). If the watch remains stopped after battery change, consult a watchmaker. Make sure the crown is fully pushed in to position I.
