Congratulations

We would like to congratulate you on having chosen a self-winding chro- nograph TISSOT ®, one of the most highly renowned Swiss brands in the world.

Meticulously designed, using only the highest quality materials and com- ponents, your chronograph is protected against shock loads, variations in temperature, water and dust.

In the chronograph function, this model is able to time events lasting up to 12 hours, displaying all the results precisely to the nearest 1/10th of a second.

To ensure that your chronograph operates with perfect precision for many years to come, we advise you to pay very careful attention to the advice provided hereafter.

Usage / Settings

Models with a screwed crown

To ensure that they remain water-resistant, some models are fitted with a screwed crown. Before setting the time or date* or day*, you must first unscrew the crown into position IB before you can pull it out into position II or III.

Important : After each operation, you must always screw the crown back down to ensure that your watch remains water-resistant.

Winding

Crown in position I/IB, not pulled out

Manual winding is necessary if you have not been wearing your watch for some considerable period of time. To restart it, you only need to turn the crown a few times (clockwise), or to tilt your watch from side to side a few times. To restore the power reserve of your watch to more than 42 hours, you need to turn the crown about 32 times (clockwise).

Whenever you wear your watch, the automatic mechanism is wound every time you move your wrist.

Setting the time

Carefully pull the crown into position III ; the seconds hand (3) stops at this point. Turn the crown forwards or backwards until the hands display the correct time. Once the hour hand passes the 12 o'clock position, you can see if it indicates midnight (the date changes at this point) or midday (the date does not change).

Advice on how to synchronise your watch

To synchronise the seconds hand (3) with an official time signal (radio, TV, Internet), pull the crown into position III ; the seconds hand stops at this point. At the tone, press the crown back into position I (and tighten it down if you have a model with a screwed crown).

Fast correction of the date* and day*

Important : Do not set the date* and/or the day* between 10 pm and 2 am (the movement is in the process of changing the date at these times).

Pull the crown into position II and turn it clockwise until your watch display the correct date (4) and turn it anticlockwise to change the day setting (5)*. During this operation, your watch will continue to function normally, so you will not need to alter the time.

* According to model

Chronograph

Chronograph function

Press the Stop/Start push button (10) to start the timing operation. Press the Stop/Start push button (10) again to stop the timing operation. The timing operation restarts when you press the Stop/Start push button (10) again (time is added), or the three chronograph hands (6, 7 and 8) can be reset to zero by pressing the push button (11). This is only used to reset the chronograph hands to zero.

Speedometer (depending on the model)

The speedometer is used to measure the speed of an object which is moving at a constant speed. Start the timing operation and stop it again once you have covered a distance of 1 km. The chronograph hand then points at a numeral on the tachometric scale (9), indicating the speed in km/h.

Care and maintenance

We would advise you to clean your watch regularly (except for the leather strap) using a soft cloth and warm soapy water. After immersion in salty water, rinse it in fresh water and leave it to dry completely.

Do not leave it anywhere where it might be subjected to major variations in temperature or humidity, in direct sunlight or near strong magnetic fields.

To benefit from the highest standards of service and to ensure your guarantee remains in force, please always contact an approved TISSOT ® representative or retailer.

The high-quality mechanism of your TISSOT ® watch will give you complete satisfaction for many years provided that you take proper care of it. However, we would advise you to have your watch inspected every 3 to 4 years by an approved TISSOT ® representative or retailer.
