How to wind the main spring

○ This watch is an automatic winding type (with manual winding

function).

○ The mainspring can be sufficiently wound automatically by natural

movement of the arm while it is worn on the wrist. In addition, the

mainspring can be wound by turning the crown. Please see the power

reserve indicator to check the level of the remaining power.

the crown to wind the mainspring. To wind the mainspring, turn the

crown at the normal position clockwise (12 o'clock direction) slowly. If

Tips for more accurate time setting

To ensure effective operation of the Spring Drive mechanism, observe the following instructions when you set the time.

Before setting the time, make sure to wind the mainspring sufficiently. (Ensure that the power reserve indicator is showing a full-wound state.)

When starting to use a watch after it stops, wind the mainspring sufficiently. To set the time after that, wait for approximately 30 seconds after the second hand (or the small second hand) starts moving, then pull the crown out to the second click.

The second hand (or the small second hand) will stop moving when the crown is pulled out to the second click. Do not stop the movement of the second hand (or the small second hand) for longer than 30 minutes. If the stoppage of the second-hand (or the small-second-hand) movement exceeds 30 minutes, push the crown back in, and wait for approximately 30 seconds after the second hand (or the small second hand) restarts moving, and then set the time.
