Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the proper use and care of your OLEVS Skeleton Automatic Self-Winding Mechanical Watch. Please read these instructions carefully to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your timepiece.
Setup
1. Initial Winding
Your OLEVS watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement and does not require a battery. If the watch has stopped or has not been worn for an extended period, it needs to be manually wound to initiate power reserve.
- To manually wind, rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times while it is in its normal, pushed-in position.
- You will feel a slight resistance as the mainspring tightens. Do not overwind.
- The watch will start ticking, indicating that the movement has been engaged.
2. Setting the Time
- Gently pull the crown out to the first position.
- Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to set the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position to secure it and restart the movement.
3. Automatic Self-Winding
Once initially wound, the watch will continue to operate as long as it is worn regularly. The natural motion of your wrist will automatically wind the mainspring, maintaining the power reserve. If the watch is not worn for approximately 8-10 hours, it may stop and require manual winding again.
Operating Instructions
Skeleton Dial
The OLEVS Skeleton Watch features a transparent dial that allows you to observe the intricate mechanical movement. This design showcases the craftsmanship and engineering of the timepiece.

Luminous Function
The watch hands and hour markers are equipped with a high-definition luminous coating. After exposure to light, these elements will glow in the dark, allowing for easy time reading in low-light conditions.
Water Resistance (3ATM)
Your watch is rated for 3ATM (30 meters) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as during hand washing or light rain. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, showering with hot water, or any activities involving prolonged water exposure or high-pressure water.

Maintenance
Cleaning
- Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth.
- For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture. If it gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Do not use chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or strap.
Storage
When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keeping it in its original box or a watch case can help protect it from dust and scratches.
Avoidance
- Shocks: Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong impacts, which can damage the delicate mechanical movement.
- Magnetic Fields: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, certain electronic devices), as these can affect the accuracy of the mechanical movement.
- Extreme Temperatures: Protect the watch from extreme heat or cold, which can impact its performance and material integrity.
- Chemicals: Avoid contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes, and cosmetics, as these can damage the case, strap, or seals.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Watch stops or runs intermittently. | Insufficient power reserve. | Manually wind the watch (30-40 crown rotations). Wear the watch regularly to maintain power. |
| Time is inaccurate. | Exposure to strong magnetic fields or impact. | Keep away from magnetic sources. If inaccuracy persists, professional servicing may be required. |
| Moisture or condensation inside the watch. | Water resistance compromised due to impact, extreme temperature changes, or improper crown sealing. | Immediately contact customer support or a qualified watch repair service. Do not attempt to open the watch yourself. |
