2. Setup and Initial Use

2.1 Setting the Time

1. Gently pull out the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) to position 2.
2. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
3. Once the time is set, push the crown back into position 1 (normal operating position).

2.2 Setting the Date

1. Gently pull out the crown to position 1 (first click).
2. Rotate the crown to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
3. Once the date is set, push the crown back into the normal operating position.

3. Operating Your Watch

3.1 Chronograph Function

Your TW72 watch features a chronograph, allowing you to measure elapsed time.

• Start/Stop: Press the top pusher (button) to start the chronograph. Press it again to stop.
• Reset: While the chronograph is stopped, press the bottom pusher to reset all chronograph hands to zero.

3.2 Water Resistance

This watch is water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters). This rating makes it suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for diving. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

4. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the rubber strap, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by thorough drying.
• Avoid Chemicals: Do not expose your watch to solvents, detergents, perfumes, or cosmetics, as these can damage the case, strap, or seals.
• Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (above 60°C / 140°F or below 0°C / 32°F) or sudden temperature changes.
• Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, which can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement.
• Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the second hand starts jumping every few seconds (End-of-Life indicator), the battery needs to be replaced. This should be done by a qualified watchmaker to ensure water resistance is maintained.
