FAQ

Watch Band

The watch band I bought was easy to loosen and would open with the slightest pressure. Is this a glitch?

If your watch band is easy to loosen, please check whether the clasp is fully closed. After magnetic adsorption, the buckles will interact to form a locking structure.

If your watch band’s clasp is not fully closed, it may open. When the clasp is fully buckled, the space between the clasp and the band is flat with no bulges. Please refer to the picture below.

When my watch is on my wrist, the clasp is squeezed and unlatched in sports training. Can I make it more difficult to unlock?

Yes! First of all, please ensure you lock the clasp correctly. When the clasp is locked, pressing a button on one side will not unlock it.

If your training will squeeze both side buttons, please adjust the clasp position according to your habits. The below photos are for your reference.

For everyday waterproof use and regular activity, the strap is suitable, but high-intensity and intense exercise is not recommended. Ensure to keep it dry and clean.
