2.1 Desembalaxe e inspección inicial

Upon receiving your Tissot PRX Powermatic 80, carefully remove it from its packaging. Inspect the watch for any visible damage. Ensure all protective films are removed from the crystal and case back.

2.2 Enrolamento inicial

2. Turn the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will build up a sufficient power reserve to start the watch.
3. Introduza a coroa de novo e atorníllea firmemente para garantir a resistencia á auga.

4.1 Limpeza do reloxo

To maintain the appearance of your watch, clean the case and strap regularly.

• For the case and sapphire crystal: Use a soft, damp pano. Para a sucidade persistente, pódese usar unha solución de xabón suave, despois enxaugar con auga limpa e secar completamente.
• For the silicone strap: Wash with mild soap and water, then rinse and dry.
• Always ensure the crown is securely screwed down before cleaning with water.
