2. Setup

2.1. Unboxing and Initial Inspection

Your Oris watch comes in its original packaging. Carefully remove the watch and inspect it for any visible damage. Ensure all protective films are removed before use.

2.2. Winding the Watch

This watch features an automatic mechanical movement. It is powered by the motion of your wrist. If the watch has stopped or its power reserve is low, it can be manually wound:

1. Unscrew the crown (if it is a screw-down crown) by turning it counter-clockwise.
2. In position 1 (normal position, unscrewed), turn the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will provide sufficient power reserve to start the watch.
3. The watch will then continue to wind itself through normal wrist movement.

2.3. Setting Time and Date

To set the time and date:

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 2.
2. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
3. Pull the crown out to position 3. The seconds hand will stop (hacking feature).
4. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set by observing if the date changes when passing midnight.
5. Once the time is set, push the crown back into position 1 and screw it down tightly (if applicable) to ensure water resistance.

3. Operating Your Watch

3.1. Uni-directional Rotating Bezel

Your Oris Divers Sixty-Five features a uni-directional rotating bezel, designed for dive timing. It rotates only counter-clockwise to prevent accidental extension of dive time.

1. Before a dive, align the triangle marker on the bezel with the minute hand.
2. The minute hand will then indicate the elapsed time on the bezel's minute scale.

3.2. Water Resistance

The watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet) or 10 BAR. This makes it suitable for swimming and snorkeling. However, it is not recommended for scuba diving unless explicitly stated for higher depths.

• Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before exposing the watch to water.
• Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is submerged in water.
• Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes, which can affect water resistance.

4. Maintenance

4.1. Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch:

• Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth regularly.
• For stainless steel, a soft brush and mild soapy water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing with fresh water and drying. Ensure the crown is screwed down before cleaning with water.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

4.2. Regular Servicing

Like any precision instrument, your Oris watch requires periodic professional servicing to ensure its accuracy and longevity. It is recommended to have your watch serviced by an authorized Oris service center every 3-5 years.

4.3. Storage

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

5. Troubleshooting

• Watch Not Running: If your automatic watch has stopped, it likely needs to be wound. Manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise 20-30 times in position 1 (unscrewed). If it still does not run after winding and wearing, it may require professional inspection.
• Date Not Changing: Ensure the time is set correctly, passing through 12 AM for the date to advance. Avoid setting the date manually between 9 PM and 3 AM. If the issue persists, consult an authorized service center.
• Condensation Under Crystal: A small amount of condensation that dissipates quickly is usually not a concern. However, if persistent or significant, it indicates a loss of water resistance and requires immediate professional attention to prevent damage to the movement.
