2.Move clasp to desired band length.

3.While holding the locking plate with your finger and thumb, exert slight pressure and slide the clasp back and forth until you feel the clasp engage in one of the grooves on the underside of the band.

LIMITED WARRANTY

The Basic Coverage: This TIMEX Quartz Analog watch (but not any battery, crystal, band or strap) is warranted to the owner for a period of ONE YEAR from the date of purchase against defects in manufacture by Timex Corporation - not by the dealer from whom the watch was purchased.

What Timex Will Do: If this watch develops such a defect within the one year period, it will be repaired (i.e., a new or thoroughly reconditioned and inspected movement will be installed) or replaced ( a watch of equal value and similar appearance will be supplied) at our option, provided it is returned with a $5.00 check or money order to cover costs of postage, handling and service, and you provide proof of purchase and date of purchase.

This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover:

1)Timex will not repair defects related to servicing not performed by Timex Corporation.

2)Timex will not provide any warranty service if your watch shows evidence that it has been tampered with, misused, abused, or altered; for example:

moisture damage sufficient to affect the proper function of the watch;

damage to the case; or

visible cracking of the crystal.

3)Timex reserves the right to charge you for a replacement battery, if the battery in your watch is depleted. No additional charge will be made unless the one year warranty period has expired or servicing is necessary for reasons beyond our control, in which case a moderate charge will be made.

4)TIMEX IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental, special or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you.

Your Rights Under Implied Warranties and State Law: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES. TIMEX LIMITS THE DURATION OF ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY STATE LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TO ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF ORIGINAL PURCHASE. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

Care of Your Watch:

Avoid exposing your watch to water, steam, or other forms of moisture if it is non- water-resistant.

If the crystal becomes damaged, have it replaced at once to avoid damage to the movement.

When your battery is depleted, have it replaced promptly. The particular type of battery required is indicated on your caseback. You can get them from your local Timex retailer.

Service of Your Watch:

If your TIMEX watch should ever need servicing, send it to Timex addressed as follows: HOTLINE WATCH SERVICE, P.O. Box 2740, Little Rock, AR 72203

Because of possible loss, we recommend insuring your watch, return receipt requested, when using the mails. If you do not obtain a receipt within a reasonable time, start a tracer through the originating post office. NEVER INCLUDE A SPECIAL WATCHBAND OR ANY OTHER ARTICLE OF PERSONAL VALUE IN YOUR SHIPMENT. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE MAY SUBSTITUTE A WATCH OF EQUAL VALUE AND SIMILAR APPEARANCE FOR YOURS ON BOTH IN-WARRANTY AND OUT-OF- WARRANTY REPAIRS.

For your convenience in obtaining factory service, participating Timex retailers will be pleased to provide you with a postage-paid, pre-addressed Watch Repair Mailer.
