Q: How long does the battery last and what type does this watch use?
A: The GA-700BEG-1ADR is powered by a CR2016 battery with an approximate lifespan of five years under normal usage conditions. Battery replacement services are available at Cassim & Co., and we recommend using genuine Casio batteries to maintain optimal performance and water resistance integrity.

Q: What is the illuminator function and how does it work?

Q: What does shock resistance mean in practical terms?
A: Casio's shock-resistant construction protects the internal quartz module and digital components from impact damage. The watch can withstand drops onto hard surfaces, vibrations from power tools or motorcycles, and the physical demands of contact sports without compromising accuracy or functionality.

- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches, strap wear, or crystal surface marks acquired through regular use.
- Battery replacement is not covered under warranty, as batteries are considered consumable components with a defined operational lifespan.
- Water damage resulting from improper use, such as operating buttons whilst submerged or failure to maintain water resistance seals, is excluded from warranty coverage.
- Accidental damage, impact damage from drops or collisions, and damage from unauthorised modifications or repairs void the warranty.
- To validate warranty claims, the original purchase receipt from Cassim & Co. or another authorised Casio retailer must be presented.
- Warranty service must be performed by authorised Casio service centres to maintain coverage validity.

Care Guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater, chlorine, or perspiration to prevent residue buildup on the resin case and strap.
- Clean the case and strap periodically using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures above 60°C or below -10°C, as thermal extremes can affect battery performance and resin integrity.
- Do not operate the buttons whilst the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance seals.
- When not in regular use, store the watch in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent resin discolouration.
- Replace the battery promptly when the low battery indicator appears, as a depleted battery left in the watch may leak and cause internal damage.
- Have the water resistance gaskets inspected and replaced during battery changes to maintain the 200-metre water resistance rating.
- Avoid contact with solvents, chemicals, perfumes, and cosmetics, as these substances can degrade resin materials over time.
- If the watch requires service or battery replacement, always use an authorised Casio service centre to ensure genuine parts are fitted and water resistance is properly tested.
