Setup and Initial Operation

1. Initial Winding

Your OLEVS automatic mechanical watch is powered by the motion of your wrist. Before wearing it for the first time, or if the watch has stopped due to inactivity, it needs to be manually wound. To do this, rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times while it is in the normal (pushed-in) position. This will build up a power reserve to start the movement.

2. Setting the Time

1. Pull the crown out to the furthest position (Position 2).
2. Rotate the crown to move the hands clockwise until the correct time is displayed. Ensure to set the time past 12 o'clock if setting for PM hours to correctly align the date change mechanism.
3. Push the crown back into the normal position (Position 0).

3. Setting the Date and Day

The Model 6692 features a day and date display, along with a 24-hour sub-dial and a moon phase indicator. Refer to the diagram below for button identification.

• Adjust Month Buttons: Use the top right pusher to adjust the month.
• Adjust Calendar Button: Use the bottom right pusher to adjust the date.
• Left Function Knob (Pushers on left side):
  1. Adjust the year.
  2. Adjust the week (day of the week).
• Moon Phase: The moon phase indicator typically advances with the date. Avoid adjusting the date or moon phase between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.

Operating Your Watch

Automatic Movement

The OLEVS Model 6692 features an automatic self-winding mechanical movement. This means the watch is powered by the natural motion of your arm. When worn regularly (approximately 8-10 hours a day), it will maintain its power reserve. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop and will require manual winding as described in the "Initial Winding" section.

Luminous Function

The watch hands and hour markers are treated with a luminous material, allowing for readability in low-light conditions. Exposure to light will charge the luminous elements, causing them to glow in the dark.

Care and Maintenance

Water Resistance

This OLEVS watch is rated for 30 meters (3ATM) water resistance. This means it is suitable for daily use, such as splashes, rain, and brief immersion. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or hot water activities (e.g., hot showers, saunas) as steam can penetrate the seals.

Cleaning

To clean your watch, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. For the stainless steel bracelet, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Storage

When not wearing your watch for extended periods, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields. A watch winder can be used to keep the automatic movement running if desired.

Troubleshooting

• Watch has stopped or is running slow:

  This is common for automatic watches if not worn regularly. Manually wind the watch by rotating the crown clockwise 30-40 times. Wear the watch for at least 8-10 hours daily to maintain its power reserve.

• Date/Day not changing correctly:

  Ensure the time is set correctly, especially distinguishing between AM and PM. Avoid adjusting the date/day between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this is when the movement's date change mechanism is engaged and manual adjustment can cause damage.

• Condensation inside the watch:

  If you notice condensation, it indicates a breach in the water resistance. Avoid further contact with water and seek professional service immediately to prevent damage to the movement.
