NOTES ON USING THE WATCH
HOW TO START THE WATCH
●
The watch can be wound manually when the crown is at the normal position or first click.
●
The watch cannot be wound by turning the crown counterclockwise.
●
When the watch is wound manually, please note that the crown can be turned even after the watch
is wound fully. While turning the crown, therefore, count the number of turns given to the crown.
●
Once the watch is wound fully, it operates for about 40 hours.
●
Wear the watch daily for at least 8 hours.
●
If the watch is used without wearing on the wrist, be sure to wind it fully every day at a fixed time.
TIME/DATE SETTING
●
When setting the hour hand, check that AM/PM is correctly set. The watch is so designed that the
date changes once in 24 hours.
* The 24-hour hand moves correspondingly with the hour hand.
●
Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. Otherwise, it may not change properly.
If it is necessary to set the date during that time period, first change the time to any time outside it,
set the date and then reset the correct time.
●
When setting the time, first set the hands to the time a few minutes behind the correct time and then
advance the hands to the exact time.
●
It is necessary to adjust the date at the end of February and 30-day months.
In this case pull out the crown to the first click and turn it to set the date to “1”. Then, push the crown
back in to the normal position.
