NOTES ON USING THE WATCH

HOW TO WIND THE WATCH

●Wind clockwise. The watch is so designed that the mainspring will not be wound by turning the crown counterclockwise.

TIME/DATE SETTING

●Date setting (also for “● Date adjustment at the beginning of the month”)

Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. as the date may not change properly. If it is necessary to adjust the date during that time period, first pull out the crown to the second click, turn it counterclockwise until the hands advance past 1:00 a.m., and then, push it back to the first click to set the desired date.

●Time setting

*When setting the hour hand, check that AM/PM is properly set. The watch is so designed that the date changes once every 24 hours.

*The mechanism of this watch is different from that of a conventional quartz watch. To set the time, therefore, first set the hands to a time a few minutes behind the desired time, and then, advance the hands to the exact time. If the hands turn past the desired time, repeat this procedure again.

[Tips for setting the time accurately]

Your watch is equipped with a newly-developed spring drive mechanism. To set the time accurately, please observe the following.

1.Before setting the time, wind the mainspring fully until the power reserve indicator points to “1”. If the watch has stopped completely before it is wound up, wind the mainspring fully, allowing the watch to operate for at least 30 seconds, and then set the time.

2.Do not leave the second hand stopped for more than 30 minutes by keeping the crown at the second click. If this should happen, push the crown back in to the normal position, allowing the watch to operate for at least 30 seconds, and then set the time.
