Using your Michele Meggie watch is a breeze. Just put it on your wrist and set the time according to your local time. Since it has a Swiss movement, it should keep accurate time. When it comes to the strap, you can change it easily to match different outfits as it's interchangeable with any 14mm Michele strap. As for maintenance, keep it away from water as much as possible. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it clean regularly to keep the 18k gold - plated bracelet and stainless - steel case shiny. Also, avoid knocking it against hard objects to prevent scratches on the case and dial.
