The presentation case of your watch is fitted with a tray in Macassar
ebony holding a winding motor designed
to be used only with the
Jean Dunand Shabaka watch
(calibre CLA88QPRM).
A soundboard crafted from spruce according to violin-making
techniques is also fixed on the tray to provide a natural amplifier for
the chime of the minute-repeater. With the watch held securely in its
mounting, you can activate the minute-repeater to appreciate fully
the sound of its strike. You will also find a stylus to press the push-
pieces that set the months and moon phases, as well as a lens with
which to examine the intricacies of the mechanisms. The tray and its
contents can be removed gently from the case.
Warning!
Only use the winding motor for your Jean Dunand Shabaka
model. It will damage the movement of any other watch.

First check that the crown is in the winding position, pushed against
the case. Place the watch carefully between the four pegs that hold
it in place, with the crown facing the winding motor.
W I N D I N G S Y S T E M O P E R A T I O N
Start winding by pushing the start/stop lever clockwise as far as it
will go. The winding mechanism engages with the winding crown on
the watch. The motor checks the contact with a back and forth
movement and then proceeds to wind the watch fully. Without any
further intervention, the motor rewinds the watch fully every 10 hours.
This means that the watch will always have a minimum of about
35 hours power reserve, with its full power reserve being about
45 hours. To switch off the winding operation, move the lever back
to the Stop position.
