Setup

Initial Winding

As an automatic watch, the PD-1651 is powered by the motion of your wrist. However, for the first use or if the watch has stopped due to lack of wear, manual winding is recommended to build up the initial power reserve. To do this, gently turn the crown clockwise approximately 20 times while it is in the normal, pushed-in position. This will initiate the movement and ensure accurate timekeeping.

Setting Time and Date

1. Pull the Crown: Gently pull the crown out to the first click position to adjust the date, or to the second click position to adjust the time.
2. Set the Date: In the first click position, turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) to set the desired date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
3. Set the Time: In the second click position, turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. For precise time setting, pull the crown out when the second hand is at the 12 o'clock position; the second hand will stop. Push the crown back in once the time signal reaches the desired time.
4. Push the Crown Back: Once time and date are set, push the crown back firmly into its original, pushed-in position to ensure water resistance.

Adjusting the Bracelet

The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by removing or adding links. A tool for link removal is typically included with your watch. If you are unsure about adjusting the bracelet yourself, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional watchmaker to avoid damage.

Operating Your Watch

Automatic Movement

Your Pagani Design PD-1651 watch is equipped with a Japanese automatic mechanical movement. This means the watch is powered by the natural motion of your arm and does not require a battery. When worn regularly (typically 8-10 hours a day), the watch will self-wind and maintain its power reserve of approximately 40 hours. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop and require manual winding as described in the Setup section.

Water Resistance (100M / 10 BAR)

The watch is rated for 100 meters (10 BAR) of water resistance. This makes it suitable for everyday activities such as hand washing, rain exposure, and even swimming. However, it is not intended for hot showers, diving, or high-pressure water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and tightened (if it's a screw-down crown) before any exposure to water.

Rotating Bezel Function

The unidirectional rotating bezel can be used for timing events. Align the triangle marker on the bezel with the minute hand at the start of an event. As time passes, the minute hand will point to the elapsed time on the bezel's scale. This feature is useful for tracking dive times, parking meters, or other short intervals.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain the appearance of your watch, regularly wipe the case, crystal, and bracelet with a soft, high-fiber cleaning cloth. For more thorough cleaning of the stainless steel components, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish or seals.

Water Resistance Care

The water resistance of your watch is not permanent and may decrease over time due to wear and tear on gaskets. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked by a professional watchmaker every 2-3 years, especially if the watch is frequently exposed to water.

Storage

When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The original gift box provides an ideal storage solution.
