2.2 Initial Time Setting
- Unscrew the Crown: The watch features a screw-down crown for enhanced water resistance. Gently rotate the crown counter-clockwise until it releases from the case.

- Set the Time: Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Push and Screw Down the Crown: Once the time is set, push the crown back into the first click position (date setting, if applicable) and then gently push it all the way in. While pushing, rotate it clockwise to screw it back into the case, ensuring a secure, water-resistant seal. Do not overtighten.
2.3 Date Setting (if applicable)

3. Operation
3.1 Chronograph Functions
The watch features a chronograph for measuring elapsed time. It includes 24-hour, 60-second, and 60-minute subdials.
- Start/Stop: Press the upper pusher (button) to start the chronograph. Press it again to stop.
- Reset: With the chronograph stopped, press the lower pusher to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
3.2 Tachymeter Scale
The tachymeter scale on the watch's flange can be used to measure speed over a known distance (e.g., 1 kilometer or 1 mile). Start the chronograph at the beginning of the distance and stop it at the end. The point on the tachymeter scale indicated by the chronograph second hand will show the average speed in units per hour.
3.3 Water Resistance
This watch is water resistant to 200 meters (660 feet). This rating makes it suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports. It is not suitable for diving. Ensure the crown is always securely screwed down before any contact with water to maintain water resistance.
