2. Setup and Initial Use

Unboxing and First Wind:

Upon receiving your FEICE FM201 watch, it will be presented in its packaging. As an automatic watch, it does not require a battery. For the first use, it is recommended to manually wind the watch to ensure it has sufficient power to start and maintain accurate timekeeping.

  • Remove the watch carefully from its packaging.
  • To manually wind the watch, ensure the crown is in Position "0" (fully pushed in). Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will build up an initial power reserve.

Setting Time and Date:

The crown on the side of your watch has multiple positions for setting the time and date.

  1. Setting the Date: Gently pull the crown out to Position "1". Rotate the crown either clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the date. Once the correct date is displayed, push the crown back to Position "0".
  2. Setting the Time: Gently pull the crown out to Position "2". Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Be mindful of AM/PM when setting the time, as the date will change at midnight. Once the correct time is set, push the crown back to Position "0".

3. Operating Your Automatic Watch

Your FEICE FM201 watch is powered by a Seagull automatic movement. This means it harnesses the kinetic energy from your daily activities to wind itself.

Daily Operation:

  • Simply wear the watch regularly. The natural motion of your wrist will keep the mainspring wound.
  • If worn for at least 10 hours a day, the watch should maintain its power reserve without needing manual winding.
  • If the watch stops due to lack of wear, manually wind it (as described in Section 2) to restart it.

4. Maintenance and Care

Water Resistance:

The FEICE FM201 watch is water resistant to 3ATM (30 meters). This rating means it can withstand splashes of water and rain. However, it is not suitable for bathing, swimming, diving, or any activities involving prolonged water immersion or high-pressure water exposure.

General Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and sapphire crystal with a soft, dry cloth. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals.
  • Temperature: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures (hot or cold) or sudden temperature changes, as this can affect the movement's accuracy and the integrity of the materials.
  • Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, certain electronic devices), as magnetism can interfere with the watch's movement and cause it to run inaccurately.
  • Impact: While the sapphire crystal is scratch-resistant, the watch is not impervious to severe impacts. Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong shocks.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your FEICE FM201 watch, please refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
