Setup and Initial Winding
As an automatic mechanical watch, it requires initial winding if it has stopped. The watch is powered by the movement of your wrist during wear. If not worn for an extended period, it will stop.
- Manual Winding: To start the watch or if it has stopped, rotate the crown (located on the side of the watch) clockwise approximately 30-40 times while it is in its normal, pushed-in position. This will build up a power reserve.
- Automatic Winding: Once manually wound, wearing the watch for at least 8-10 hours a day will keep it wound through your natural arm movements.

Operating Instructions
Setting the Time:
- Pull the crown out to the first position.
- Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands clockwise or counter-clockwise until the desired time is set.
- Push the crown back into its normal position to engage the movement.
Setting the Moon Phase:
The moon phase display is typically adjusted using a small recessed pusher on the side of the watch case, or by rotating the crown in a specific position. Refer to the specific instructions for your model if a pusher is present. If no pusher is visible, the moon phase may advance automatically with the time or be adjusted via the crown in a second pulled-out position (if available).
Note: Avoid setting the moon phase or date functions between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, dry cloth regularly to remove dust and oils. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture.
- Water Resistance: This watch is rated for 30M (3 ATM) water resistance, suitable for daily splashes, rain, and hand washing. It is not designed for showering, swimming, diving, or any water sports. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
- Avoid Extreme Conditions: Protect your watch from extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, and harsh chemicals.
- Storage: When not wearing the watch, store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
- Servicing: Mechanical watches benefit from periodic servicing (every 3-5 years) by a qualified watchmaker to maintain optimal performance.
