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.
Pull the Crown to Position 2: Carefully pull the crown out to the second click position. This is typically used for setting the time.
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)
Unscrew the Crown: Gently rotate the crown counter-clockwise until it releases.
Pull the Crown to Position 1: Carefully pull the crown out to the first click position.
Set the Date: Rotate the crown to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the date change mechanism.
Push and Screw Down the Crown: Push the crown back in and screw it clockwise until it is securely sealed.
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.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean your watch, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. For the stainless steel case and bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish and seals.
4.2 Battery Replacement
The watch is powered by a quartz movement and requires a product-specific battery. When the battery needs replacement, it is recommended to take the watch to an authorized Invicta service center or a qualified watchmaker. This ensures proper battery installation and re-sealing of the case to maintain water resistance.
4.3 Storage
When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The original watch box provides excellent protection.
