Setup

1. Unboxing and Initial Inspection

Carefully remove the watch from its presentation box. Inspect the watch for any visible damage or defects. Ensure all protective films are removed from the crystal and case back.

2. Initial Winding

As an automatic watch, the I07702 is powered by the motion of your wrist. However, for the first use or after a period of inactivity, it is recommended to manually wind the watch. To do this, ensure the crown is in position 1 (fully pushed in). Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will provide sufficient power reserve to start the movement.

3. Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to position 3 (farthest out).
2. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the main time display.
3. Once the desired time is set, push the crown back into position 1 (fully pushed in) to engage the movement.

4. Adjusting the Strap

The watch comes with a blue leather strap with a buckle closure. To adjust the fit, simply thread the strap through the buckle and secure it in the desired hole. Ensure the watch is snug but comfortable on your wrist, allowing for proper blood circulation.

Operating the Watch

1. Automatic Movement

Your Ingersoll The Jazz watch is equipped with an automatic mechanical movement. This means it is powered by the natural motion of your arm. When worn regularly (approximately 8-10 hours a day), the watch will remain wound. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop. In this case, manually wind it as described in the 'Initial Winding' section before setting the time.

2. Dual Time Display

The watch features a sub-dial, typically located at the 9 o'clock position, which displays a second time zone. This sub-dial operates independently from the main time display. To set the dual time:

1. Locate the small pusher button on the side of the watch case, usually near the 8 or 10 o'clock position.
2. Use a small, non-sharp tool (like a toothpick) to gently press the pusher. Each press will advance the hour hand of the dual time sub-dial by one hour.
3. Continue pressing until the desired second time zone is displayed.

3. Moon Phase Indicator

The moon phase indicator, typically located at the 12 o'clock position, displays the current phase of the moon. This complication is often set via a separate pusher button on the watch case, similar to the dual time setting. To set the moon phase:

1. Locate the small pusher button on the side of the watch case, usually near the 2 or 4 o'clock position.
2. Use a small, non-sharp tool to gently press the pusher. Each press will advance the moon phase disc.
3. Consult a current moon phase calendar to set the indicator accurately.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth regularly. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals. If the strap becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely.

2. Water Resistance

Your Ingersoll The Jazz I07702 watch has a water resistance rating of 50 meters (5 ATM). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, showering, or washing hands. It is not suitable for diving, snorkeling, or prolonged water activities. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.

• 50 Meters (5 ATM): Suitable for everyday use, hand washing, rain, and short periods of recreational swimming.
• Avoid: Hot water, steam (e.g., sauna, hot showers), and chemical exposure, as these can compromise the water seals.

3. Storage

When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The original presentation box is ideal for storage.

4. Service

For optimal performance, mechanical watches typically require professional servicing every 3-5 years. Contact an authorized Ingersoll service center for maintenance.

Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: If the watch has stopped, it likely needs to be wound. Manually wind the watch by rotating the crown clockwise 20-30 times while it is in position 1 (fully pushed in). If it still does not start, ensure it is worn regularly to allow the automatic movement to function.
• Time Inaccuracy: Small variations in timekeeping are normal for mechanical watches. If the watch is consistently gaining or losing significant time, it may require adjustment by a professional watchmaker.
• Condensation Under Crystal: If you notice condensation inside the watch, this indicates a breach in the water resistance. Immediately take the watch to an authorized service center to prevent further damage to the movement.
• Strap Discomfort: If the leather strap causes irritation, ensure it is not too tight. Clean the strap regularly and allow it to dry completely after exposure to moisture.
