Thank you for choosing the OLEVS Model 6689 Automatic Mechanical Watch. This timepiece combines classic design with modern mechanical precision, featuring a skeleton tourbillon, moon phase display, and luminous elements. This manual provides essential information for setting up, operating, and maintaining your watch to ensure its longevity and accurate performance.

2. Key Features

• Skeleton Tourbillon Design: Features a visible mechanical movement with a tourbillon, showcasing intricate craftsmanship.
• Moon Phase Display: A subdial indicating the current phase of the moon.
• Second Time Zone Subdial: Displays an additional time zone, often depicted with an Earth pattern.
• Automatic Mechanical Movement: Powered by the motion of your wrist, requiring no battery. Supports both self-winding and manual winding.
• Luminous Hands and Markers: Phosphorescent material on hands and markers allows for time reading in low-light conditions after exposure to light.
• 30M Water Resistance: Suitable for daily use, such as hand washing or light rain exposure. Not recommended for swimming or diving.
• High Hardness Coated Mirror Surface: Durable and scratch-resistant watch crystal.
• Stainless Steel Strap/Leather Strap: High-quality materials for comfort and durability, with a secure butterfly clasp (for stainless steel) or pin buckle (for leather).

3. Setup and Initial Use

3.1 Initial Winding

As an automatic mechanical watch, it requires initial winding if it has stopped. To wind the watch:

1. Ensure the crown is in its normal, pushed-in position.
2. Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will build up enough power reserve to start the watch and allow the automatic winding mechanism to take over with wear.

3.2 Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to the outermost position (Position 2).
2. Rotate the crown to move the hands clockwise until the desired time is set.
3. Push the crown back into its normal position (Position 0) to engage the movement.

3.3 Setting Subdials (Moon Phase, Second Time Zone)

The OLEVS Model 6689 features two subdials. Adjustments are typically made via small pushers on the side of the watch case or by rotating the crown in specific positions.

• Moon Phase: Consult the specific instructions provided with your watch for adjusting the moon phase. This often involves a recessed pusher on the side of the case, requiring a small tool (like a toothpick) to press.
• Second Time Zone: This subdial usually synchronizes with the main time or is adjusted independently via a dedicated pusher or crown position. Refer to the detailed diagram in your watch's specific leaflet if available.

4. Operating Your Watch

4.1 Automatic Winding

Your OLEVS automatic watch is powered by the natural motion of your wrist. When worn regularly (approximately 8-10 hours a day), the rotor inside the watch moves, winding the mainspring and maintaining the power reserve. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop. In this case, manually wind it as described in Section 3.1.

4.2 Luminous Function

The luminous elements on the dial and hands absorb light energy from natural or artificial light sources. In dark environments, these elements will emit a green glow, allowing you to read the time. The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the exposure time and intensity of the light source.

5. Maintenance

• Water Resistance: The watch is 30M water resistant. Avoid exposing it to hot water, steam (e.g., in a shower or sauna), or prolonged immersion. Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet.
• Cleaning: Wipe the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and sweat. For leather straps, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals.
• Avoid Magnetic Fields: Keep your watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, mobile phones, airport security scanners) as magnetism can affect the accuracy of mechanical movements.
• Temperature Extremes: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, as this can affect lubricants and seals.
• Storage: When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original box or a watch winder if you wish to keep it running continuously.
