Frequently Asked Questions
Is this watch automatic or quartz?
The AbyssForce uses a Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement — a hybrid that combines quartz timekeeping (battery-powered, accurate to within ±20 seconds per month) with a mechanical chronograph module (smooth sweeping seconds hand and snap-back reset). The battery lasts approximately 3 years and is easily replaced at any watch service center. It is NOT a fully automatic mechanical watch — please do not attempt to wind the crown.
Does the watch have a working chronograph?
Yes. The AbyssForce features a fully functional chronograph with three sub-dials measuring elapsed minutes (12 o'clock sub-dial up to 60), elapsed hours (9 o'clock sub-dial up to 24), and running seconds (6 o'clock sub-dial). The screw-down pushers above and below the crown start/stop and reset the chronograph.
What is the tachymeter for?
The tachymeter scale on the chapter ring lets you measure speed over a known distance. Start the chronograph as you pass a starting marker, stop it as you pass a marker exactly one mile or one kilometer away. The number the seconds hand points to is your speed in MPH or KMH.
How long does the battery last?
Approximately 3 years under normal use. Battery replacement is straightforward at any watch service center and typically costs $10–20.
Is this a real dive watch?
Yes. The 500M / 50BAR water resistance, rotating dive bezel, screw-down crown, and screw-down chronograph pushers make this a legitimate dive watch suitable for swimming, snorkeling, surfing, and recreational scuba diving.
Can the chronograph be operated underwater?
The chronograph pushers are screw-down, which maintains water resistance during chronograph operation. However, we recommend ensuring the pushers are fully secured before any water activity for maximum safety.
What is the helium release valve for?
The helium release valve on the left side of the case is designed to release helium that may build up during saturation-diving conditions. Most recreational users will never need this feature. It is simply part of the case construction and does not affect normal everyday use.
What size wrist does this fit?
The 48mm case is best suited to wrists measuring 7 inches or larger. On wrists between 6.5 and 7 inches, it will have a noticeably bold presence. If you prefer a smaller option, consider the AbyssHeritage 500M (43mm).
How accurate is the watch?
The Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement is accurate to within ±20 seconds per month — significantly more accurate than typical automatic mechanical watches which run ±30 seconds per day.
Are the bracelet links solid or hollow?
The AbyssForce bracelet uses solid stainless steel links throughout — not hollow construction. This adds to the watch's substantial 270-gram weight and contributes to the premium feel on the wrist.
Why does the dial say "FEELNEVER"?
Our current AbyssForce inventory features the manufacturer's branding on the dial. Custom AbyssForce-branded dials are in production for our next shipment. We offer the watch at a competitive price with our US-based customer service and 12-month warranty backing.
What's included in the box?
Each AbyssForce ships with the watch, a premium presentation watch box, user manual, warranty card (12 months), and microfiber cleaning cloth.
What is the warranty and return policy?
12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects from the date of purchase. 30-day easy returns if the watch isn't right for you — no questions asked. Shipped from California in 2–7 business days.
