Operating manual for Architect 2001 (Automatic)
Your watch is fitted with Swiss-made ETA 2000-1 Automatic movement. The inner
mechanism of the watch has a free swinging rotor that keeps the mainspring wound via
the motion of your wrist. A watch fitted with an automatic winding movement is
rewound by the regular movements of your wrist.
Once fully wound, your watch will continue to keep time for approximately 40 hours after
removing it from your wrist. Beyond this time, the watch will stop. You will then need to
rewind it manually by turning the crown clockwise
(approximately 20 turns) to provide it with the necessary power reserve. After that, your
daily activity should wind the watch sufficiently to keep it running at night when it is not
being worn. You should wear your watch everyday to ensure optimal rewinding.
