2. Setup Instructions

Before wearing your watch, it is essential to set the correct time, date, day of the week, and moon phase. The watch features a crown on the side for adjustments.

2.1 Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to its outermost position (Position 3). The second hand will stop.
2. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the desired time. Ensure you distinguish between AM and PM for correct date change.
3. Push the crown back into Position 1 (normal operating position) to start the watch.

2.2 Setting the Date and Day of the Week

1. Pull the crown out to the middle position (Position 2).
2. Turn the crown in one direction (e.g., clockwise) to adjust the date.
3. Turn the crown in the other direction (e.g., counter-clockwise) to adjust the day of the week.
4. Avoid setting the date or day between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this is when the automatic date change mechanism is engaged and could be damaged. If you need to set the date during this period, first set the time outside this window, adjust the date/day, then reset the time.
5. Once set, push the crown back into Position 1.

2.3 Setting the Moon Phase

The moon phase display is typically adjusted using a small recessed pusher on the side of the watch case, or by rotating the crown in Position 2. Consult the specific markings on your watch or refer to a detailed diagram if available. Generally, you will press the pusher repeatedly or turn the crown until the moon phase display shows the current phase of the moon.

3. Operation

3.1 Wearing the Watch

Ensure the stainless steel bracelet is adjusted to fit comfortably on your wrist. The folding clasp provides a secure closure. The watch should be worn snugly enough not to slide freely, but not so tight as to restrict circulation.

3.2 Water Resistance

Your Jacques Lemans Liverpool Moonphase 1-1901 watch is water-resistant to 10 bar (100 meters / 330 feet). This rating makes it suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and showering. However, it is not suitable for high-impact water sports, diving, or prolonged submersion at significant depths. Always 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. Care and Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch, regularly wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth. For stainless steel parts, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using chemical cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish and seals.

4.2 Battery Replacement

Your watch is powered by a product-specific battery (included). When the battery power is low, the second hand may start to jump in two-second intervals (End-of-Life indicator). It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker or an authorized service center to ensure the water resistance and proper functioning of the watch are maintained. Do not attempt to replace the battery yourself.

4.3 General Care

• Avoid exposing your watch to extreme temperatures (above 60°C / 140°F or below 0°C / 32°F) or sudden temperature changes.
• Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields, as these can affect the accuracy of the quartz movement.
• Protect your watch from impacts and shocks.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Watch Not Running / Incorrect Time

• Check the crown: Ensure the crown is fully pushed in to Position 1. If it is pulled out, the watch will not run.
• Battery: If the watch has stopped completely, the battery may need replacement. Look for the End-of-Life indicator (second hand jumping every two seconds).
• Impact: If the watch has suffered a severe impact, internal components may be damaged. Seek professional service.

5.2 Condensation Inside the Crystal

If you notice condensation under the crystal, it indicates a breach in the watch's water resistance. This requires immediate attention from a professional watchmaker to prevent further damage to the movement.
