3. Setup and Initial Adjustment

3.1 Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to the second click position.
2. Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands to the desired time. Ensure the 24-hour subdial also reflects the correct AM/PM period.
3. Push the crown back into the normal position to start the watch.

3.2 Setting the Date and Day

The date and day subdials are typically adjusted using the pushers on the side of the watch case. Specific pusher functions may vary slightly, but generally:

• Locate the small pushers on the side of the watch case, usually above and below the crown.
• Use a small, pointed object (like a toothpick or a pen tip) to gently press the pushers.
• One pusher will advance the date, and the other will advance the day. Press repeatedly until the correct date and day are displayed.
• Note: Avoid setting the date or day between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism and potentially damage the movement.

4. Operating Your Watch

4.1 Water Resistance

Your watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This rating means the watch is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or prolonged water immersion. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

4.2 Luminous Features

The hands and markers on your watch feature a luminous coating that glows in the dark after exposure to light, allowing for readability in low-light conditions.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

• Wipe the watch case and crystal regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
• For stubborn dirt, 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.

5.2 Leather Strap Care

• Avoid prolonged exposure of the leather strap to water, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures, which can cause drying, cracking, or discoloration.
• Clean the strap with a soft, damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. Do not use harsh chemicals.
• Perspiration and cosmetics can degrade leather over time. Wipe the strap after wear if necessary.

5.3 Battery Replacement

Your watch is powered by a Japanese-quartz movement, which requires a battery. When the battery runs low, the watch may stop or the second hand may skip. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to prevent damage to the movement and ensure water resistance is maintained.

6. Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running:
  • Check if the crown is fully pushed in.
  • The battery may need replacement. Consult a professional watch technician.
• Time/Date Incorrect:
  • Refer to Section 3 for instructions on setting the time and date.
  • Ensure the date/day is not being adjusted during the forbidden hours (9 PM - 3 AM).
• Condensation Under Crystal:
  • This indicates moisture has entered the watch. Immediately take the watch to a professional for inspection and repair to prevent internal damage.
