Setup

Initial Setup: Setting Time and Date

Your watch is equipped with a single crown for adjustments. Follow these steps to set the correct time and date:

1. Identify the Crown: The crown is the small knob located on the right side of the watch case.
2. Setting the Date and Day:
   • Gently pull the crown out to the first click position.
   • Turn the crown clockwise to adjust the date.
   • Turn the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the day of the week.
   • Adjust until the desired date and day are displayed. Avoid setting the date/day between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism. If the time is within this period, first set the time outside this range, then adjust the date/day, and finally reset the time.
3. Setting the Time:
   • Pull the crown out to the second click position. The second hand will stop.
   • Turn the crown in either direction to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Ensure you set the correct AM/PM for the date to change at midnight.
   • Once the time is set, push the crown back into its normal operating position (fully in) to start the watch.

Operating Instructions

Reading the Time, Day, and Date

The watch features a classic analog display for time. The day of the week is indicated on the left sub-dial, and the date is shown on the right sub-dial.

Luminous Display

The hands and hour markers of your watch are treated with a luminous material. This material absorbs light during the day and emits a glow in the dark, allowing for easy time reading in low-light conditions. The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the amount of light exposure.

Maintenance

Cleaning Your Watch

To maintain the appearance of your watch:

• Wipe the case and mineral glass with a soft, dry, lint-free 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.

Battery Replacement

The watch is powered by a precise quartz movement, which requires a battery. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to skip, it is an indication that the battery needs replacement. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a qualified watch technician to ensure proper sealing and function.

Water Resistance

While the watch is designed for daily wear, specific water resistance ratings are not provided. To ensure the longevity of your timepiece, avoid exposing it to water, including showering, swimming, or heavy rain. The leather strap is particularly susceptible to water damage.

Strap Care

The leather strap will naturally age and develop a unique patina over time. To prolong its life, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemicals. If the strap becomes stiff or dry, a small amount of leather conditioner can be applied.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your watch, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Watch Not Running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If it is, the battery may need replacement.
• Incorrect Time/Date: Refer to the "Setting Time and Date" section to re-adjust. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in after adjustment.
• Date/Day Not Changing: Ensure the time is set correctly for AM/PM. If the issue persists, the mechanism may require inspection by a professional.
