FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: With 50-metre water resistance, the MTP-1302DD-5AV is suitable for splashes, handwashing, and brief immersion, but it is not designed for swimming, diving, or showering. The rating provides confidence for everyday wear in normal conditions.
Q: What type of battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: This watch uses a standard quartz battery. Typical battery life for Casio quartz movements ranges from 2 to 3 years depending on usage. Our servicing team can replace the battery when needed, and we recommend using only genuine Casio batteries to maintain water resistance integrity.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized?
A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet features removable links for professional sizing. Our technicians at Mall of the South can adjust the bracelet to your exact wrist size at the time of purchase or during any subsequent visit.
Q: What is the accuracy of the quartz movement?
A: The Japanese quartz movement in this watch is accurate to approximately ±20 seconds per month under normal operating conditions. This equates to roughly ±5 seconds per week, which is excellent precision for daily timekeeping.
Q: Does this watch have a luminous function?
A: Based on available specifications, luminous hands or markers are not confirmed for this model. The polished silver-tone hands and applied indices provide clear legibility in normal lighting conditions.
Q: What is the difference between the MTP and LTP models?
A: The MTP designation indicates men's sizing and styling, while LTP models are designed for women with smaller case dimensions. The MTP-1302DD features a 38.5mm case, while its LTP counterpart would typically measure smaller, around 32-34mm.

Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, and harsh chemicals including solvents, perfumes, and cleaning agents that may damage the case finish or seals.
- Water Resistance: Although rated to 50 metres, do not operate the crown when the watch is wet or submerged. After exposure to water, dry the watch thoroughly with a soft cloth. Avoid hot water, which can compromise seals.
- Bracelet Maintenance: Clean the stainless steel bracelet periodically with a soft brush and mild soapy water, particularly between links where perspiration and debris accumulate. Rinse with fresh water and dry completely.
- Crystal Care: The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratchproof. Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces and materials harder than the crystal, such as concrete, ceramics, or other watch crystals.
- Storage: When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Keep it away from electronic devices and magnetic sources such as speakers, refrigerators, and mobile phones.
- Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or displays irregular timekeeping, have the battery replaced promptly by a qualified technician to prevent potential leakage damage. Always request genuine Casio batteries and have seals checked during battery service.
- Regular Servicing: We recommend having the watch inspected every 2-3 years to verify water resistance seals and overall condition. Gaskets naturally deteriorate over time and may require replacement.
- Crown Operation: Return the crown to its normal position and ensure it is pushed fully in after setting the time or date to maintain water resistance integrity.
