INSTRUCTIONS
winding crown
The winding crown is used to wind the watch
(position 2) and to set the time (position 3).
winding
Your watch incorporates a self-winding movement.
The movements of your wrist set a centrifugal mass
in motion; this tensions the mainspring which
stores the energy. When you take off your fully
wound watch, it will continue to run for at least
38 hours. When it has stopped after depleting the
power reserve, it can be rewound by hand (about
10 clockwise turns of the crown). Please wind the
watch before you put it on. This way, you can avoid
lateral pressure on the winding stem which in the
course of the years could damage the stem tube.
