• To check the winding state of the mainspring, refer to “HOW TO READ THE POWER
RESERVE INDICATOR “ on page 12.
• There is no need to turn the crown further when the mainspring is fully wound. But
the crown can be turned without damaging the watch mechanism.
• Once the watch is wound up fully, it operates for about 41 hours.
• If the watch is used without being wound up fully, gain or loss of the watch may
result. To avoid this, wear the watch for more than 10 hours a day. If the watch is
used without wearing on the wrist (if it is used on the desk like a clock, for example),
be sure to wind it up fully every day at a fixed time.
• If the watch has stopped with the mainspring unwound, winding the mainspring
with the crown will not start the watch immediately. This is because the main-
spring torque (force) is low at the beginning of its winding due to the characteristics
of mechanical watches. The second hand starts to move when a certain degree
of strong torque is reached after the mainspring has been wound up. However,
swinging the watch from side to side to forcibly turn the balance can start the
watch sooner.
• Check that the watch is operating, and then set the time and date.
• The watch is provided with a date function and is so designed that the date
changes once every 24 hours. The date changes around 12 o’clock midnight. If
AM/PM is not properly set, the date will change around 12 o’clock noon.
HOW TO SET THE TIME AND DATE
CAUTION
• Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. If you do so, the date
may not change properly / it may cause a malfunction.
1. Pull out the crown to the first click. (The second
hand continues moving and the accuracy of the
watch is unimpaired.)
2. The date can be set by turning the crown
counterclockwise. Turn it until the previous
date appears.
Ex.) If today is the 5th of the month, first set the date
to ”4” by turning the crown counterclockwise.
