Converting Light into Power:

• Self-Charging Solar Power System:
  The Solaris 42 models use advanced solar quartz technology to convert light into energy. A solar cell located under the dial captures both natural and artificial light, powering the rechargeable battery. Once fully charged, the battery can operate for up to 8 months, even in complete darkness. Regular exposure to light ensures the watch recharges and extends its operational time, offering an eco-friendly solution with no need for battery
  replacements.

Key Features of Solar Power Technology:

• Extended Battery Life: A fully charged battery powers the watch for up to 8 months. For optimal
  performance, regularly expose the watch to light, ideally direct sunlight.
• Quick Start Function: The watch resumes operation within minutes after exposure to sunlight, ensuring minimal downtime.
• Battery Protection Mode: This feature prevents deep discharge by shutting off the movement when the battery is critically low, extending its lifespan.
• Battery Overcharge Protection: Protects the battery from overcharging, ensuring optimal efficiency and longevity.

Performance and Recommendations:

The Solaris 42 delivers exceptional performance with its Swiss Solar Quartz movement. Fully charged, the
battery operates reliably for up to 8 months, even in darkness. Regular exposure to light—preferably direct sunlight—recharges the watch. Just 2 minutes of sunlight can power the watch for a full day, while 35 minutes of fluorescent light or 4.4 hours of indoor lighting will fully recharge it.

For optimal performance, ensure the watch is regularly exposed to light. If the watch is fully discharged, it is advisable not to store it in a dark environment for prolonged periods. Instead, place it in a well-lit room to allow it to recharge. To further conserve energy, activate energy-saving mode by pulling the stem to the outermost position, reducing power consumption.

This self-sustaining system ensures you never need to replace the battery, making it an eco-friendly and convenient choice for the modern adventurer.
