Solar Watch Not Working on Arrival? Here’s How to Charge ItUpdated 4 hours ago

Our Solar watches never require a battery, drawing all of their power from ambient light. Using a semi-translucent dial, the Everyday Solar watches can receive enough charge for a full days power with just 2 minutes of direct sunlight. Fully charged, the watch has a power reserve that lasts 120 days without any light. 

If your new Accurist Solar watch isn’t ticking when you receive it, don’t worry; this doesn’t mean it’s faulty. Solar watches sometimes arrive with a low power reserve, especially if they’ve been stored away from light for a period of time. This simply means it needs to recharge:

1. Place your watch on a bright windowsill or in direct sunlight for at least 24 hours.
2. After charging, check to see if the second hand begins moving again.
3. If the watch remains still, contact our Customer Service team by clicking here for further support.

To keep your solar watch performing at its best:

• Avoid storing it in dark drawers or boxes for long periods.
• Give it regular exposure to natural or artificial light.
• If unused for an extended time, place it in sunlight for several hours before wearing it again.
