AUTOMATIC

Automatic Winding Movement

A timepiece fitted with an automatic winding movement obtains the power to wind itself by the movement of your wrist, there is no battery. 
Therefore, not wearing the timepiece for several consecutive days could exhaust the power reserve. If your watch stops, it is recommended that 
you manually wind the movement by rotating the crown clockwise to achieve the necessary power reserve.

It is important your timepiece is adjusted to match the size of your wrist. A loose fit may result in a loss in capacity of the timepiece to wind 
itself. When fully wound, your timepiece has a power reserve of approximately 38 hours.

Automatic  TY2723 / TY2542

1.  To start time-keeping, rotate the crown clockwise 15-20 times in 

position 1.

2.  Pull crown out to position 2 and rotate clockwise to set time. Push 

crown back to position 1.
