second intervals, the watch will run down in approximately
24 hours

When a long time has passed since the watch stopped, you can get it started quickly with
only a few swings.

This function is available as long as the watch has been stopped for less than a year.
* When this function is activated, the second hand will start moving at two-second intervals. Swing the
watch from side to side to charge the rechargeable battery by referring to “NUMBER OF SWINGS AND
POWER RESERVE”

charged further.

REMARKS ON THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
●
The electric energy generated while the watch is worn on your wrist is stored in the
rechargeable battery. It is a power source completely different from conventional batteries
for watches and does not require any periodical replacement.
●
For Cal. 5M62, do not set the calendar between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. For Cal. 5M63, do not set
the calendar between 9:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m. Otherwise, it may not change properly. If it is necessary
to set the calendar during that time period, first change the time to any time outside it, set the calendar
and then reset the correct time.
●
To set the exact time, pull out the crown all the way when the second hand is at the 12 o’clock
position and push it back in to the normal position in accordance with a time signal.
●
When setting the hour hand, check that AM/PM is correctly set. The watch is so designed that the
calendar changes once in 24 hours.
Turn the hands past the 12 o’clock marker to determine whether the watch is set for the A.M. or
P.M. period. If the calendar changes, the time is set for the A.M. period. If the calendar does not
change, the time is set for the P.M. period.
●
When setting the minute hand, advance it 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired time and then turn it
back to the exact minute.
●
When setting the time, make sure that the second hand is moving at one-second intervals.
●
It is necessary to adjust the date on the first day after a 30-day month and February. In this case, pull
out the crown to the first click and turn it until the desired date appears.
