Slide adjuster
If your watch has a metallic band equipped with a slide adjuster mechanism, you can
easily adjust the bracelet length by yourself. This is very useful when you wear the
watch over a wetsuit or a heavy winter clothing.
How to use the slide adjuster
1
Lift up the flap approximately 90° and press it down further approximately 20°, and hold it
there.
* You may feel slight resistance, but doing this requires only a light force. Please do not
push the flap down forcibly.
2
Lightly pull the bracelet on the 6 o’clock side of the watch along the curved line of the
bracelet.
* Again, doing this requires only a light force. Please do not pull the bracelet forcibly.
* The slider can be pulled out approximately 30 mm. Be careful not to pull it out beyond
the limit mark inscribed on it.

FUNCTIONS OF DIVER’S MODEL
■ THE GRAND SEIKO STANDARD
Your Grand Seiko watch is built to the very highest standards to ensure that it keeps time
as accurately as possible. In this section, we define the Grand Seiko Standard, what it
means and how your watch is tested against it.
The “Grand Seiko Standard” is our own accuracy standard. Your watch has been tested
individually and has met this standard. All Grand Seiko calibers are tested in the same way
and for the same period but there are two standards, one for Grand Seiko men’s watches
and another for Caliber 9S27 which is used in Grand Seiko’s women’s watches. This is
because the smaller size of Caliber 9S27 results in a different level of precision.
“The Grand Seiko Standard defined” → P. 36
The movement in your Grand Seiko watch has been tested in our facilities for a period of
17 days, in six different positions and at three different temperatures. It has achieved or
surpassed the standards of accuracy shown on page 36, with the accuracy being defined
as a gain or loss per day (the “mean daily rate”).
The Grand Seiko Special Standard
The Grand Seiko Special Standard is a precision standard even higher than the Grand Seiko
Standard.
Watches that meet this standard are designated by the word “SPECIAL” printed on the dial.
We specify “target values” for actual use and these are -1 second to +10 seconds per day
for all calibers except 9S85 and 9S86 (-1 to + 8) and -5 to +10 for 9S27.
To judge the precision of your watch against these values, please measure the gain or loss
over a week to ten days, and not just for one day, and in normal conditions.
If the mean daily rate is outside these levels, we recommend adjusting the watch. Adjustment
will be chargeable even within the guarantee period if the watch has been subject to any of
the conditions below.
○ The watch has been used in ways that are not in line with the recommendations in this
booklet, such as allowing it to be magnetized.
○ It has been opened or tampered with by anyone other than a Grand Seiko repair center.
○ It has been damaged as a result of a natural disaster such as a flood, fire or earthquake.
○ Guaranteed conditions have been altered.
