AUTOMATIC WINDING AND HAND WINDING MECHANISM
(1) This is an automatic winding (hand winding) mechanical
watch.
(2) The mainspring is wound by natural movements of your
arm when wearing the watch on your wrist.
It is also wound by rotating the crown.
(3) If your watch stops, winding the mainspring by rotating the
crown or swing the watch back and forth ten or more times
to re-start the second hand. After it starts moving, set the
date and time.
(4) To wind the mainspring, ensure that the crown is in its normal position and
slowly turn it to the right (clockwise).
Turning the crown to the left (counterclockwise) will have no effect.
When the watch is in a stopped state, the mainspring can be wound
sufficiently by rotating the crown approximately 20 times. In order to the
crown will still rotate even when the mainspring is fully wound. (This is not
a fault). Avoid winding the watch more than necessary.
Since the crown will rotate even when winding is complete, wind the watch
using the scale on the power reserve indicator as a guide.
(5) This watch will run approximately 40 hours after it is fully wound. If it is
not wound enough, the watch may lose accuracy. In order to maintain the
watch’s accuracy, we recommend wearing the watch at least 8 hours a
day.

MODELS WITH SCREWED-DOWN CROWN
Depending on the model, you may not be able to pull the crown out without
unscrewing it (models with screwed-down crown).
Operate this type of watch as follows:
(1) Before setting the date and time (dual time), first turn the crown to the left
to loosen the screw lock.
(2) After setting the date and time (dual time), turn the crown to the right while
pressing in, until it stops turning to securely tighten the screw.
