Solutions

Refer to “HOW TO USE” to wind the mainspring and reset the time. While you are wearing the watch or when you take it off, check the remaining power shown by the power reserve indicator and wind the mainspring if necessary.

Wear the watch for an extended period of time, or when taking off the watch, turn the crown to wind the mainspring if the remaining power shown by the power reserve indicator is not sufficient for the next use.

Return the watch to a normal temperature so that it works accurately as usual, and then reset the time. The watch has been adjusted so that it works accurately when it is worn on your wrist under a normal temperature range between 5 and 35.

Correct this condition by moving and keeping the watch away from the magnetic source. If this action does not correct the condition, contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.

Reset the time. If the watch does not work accurately as usual after resetting the time, contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.

Contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.

If the watch is left under a temperature below 0, it may stop if the power reserve indicator is showing less than one-sixth. In such a case, turn the crown to wind the mainspring.

It takes several seconds before the adjustment function starts working. Set the time after the second hand moves for approximately 30 seconds to set the time correctly.
