Setting the Time and Date

1. Pull out the crown: Gently pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) to the second click position.
2. Set the time: Rotate the crown to move the hands clockwise or counter-clockwise until the desired time is displayed.
3. Set the date: Push the crown in one click to the first click position. Rotate the crown to adjust the date in the date window. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the date change mechanism.
4. Push in the crown: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into its normal operating position against the watch case. This also activates the watch movement.

Operating

Your Jacques Lemans Sport 1-2002H watch is an analog timepiece designed for reliable timekeeping.

• Time Display: The watch displays hours, minutes, and seconds using three central hands.
• Date Display: A dedicated window at the 3 o'clock position shows the current date.
• Water Resistance: This watch is water resistant up to 10 ATM (100 meters / 330 feet). It is suitable for swimming and snorkeling but not for diving. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and band regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the stainless steel components, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Water Resistance Care: While water resistant, avoid exposing the watch to hot water, steam, or sudden temperature changes, as this can compromise the seals. Always ensure the crown is fully closed before water exposure.
• Battery Replacement: The watch is powered by a quartz movement requiring a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand skips, it indicates a low battery. Battery replacement should be performed by a qualified watch technician to maintain water resistance and prevent damage.
• Crystal Care: The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof. Avoid impacts and contact with sharp objects to prevent damage.
• Storage: When not in use, store your watch in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields.

Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running:
  • Ensure the crown is fully pushed in.
  • The battery may need replacement. Contact a professional watch service.
• Incorrect Time/Date:
  • Refer to the "Setting the Time and Date" section to reset.
  • If the issue persists after resetting, professional inspection may be required.
• Condensation Under Crystal:
  • This indicates moisture ingress. Immediately take the watch to a professional for inspection and repair to prevent internal damage.
