3. Setup and Adjustment

Your watch features a crown and pushers for various adjustments. Refer to Image 2 for visual guidance.

  1. Setting the Time:
    • Pull the crown out to the furthest position (typically position 2 or 3).
    • Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set if your watch has a 24-hour indicator or moon phase that changes with AM/PM.
    • Push the crown back into its normal position to start the watch.
  2. Setting the Date:
    • Pull the crown out to the first click position (typically position 1).
    • Rotate the crown to adjust the date in the calendar window.
    • Push the crown back into its normal position.
  3. Setting the Moon Phase:
    • The moon phase is often adjusted in conjunction with the date or via a dedicated pusher. If your watch has a small recessed button on the side, use a pointed tool (like a toothpick) to press it and advance the moon phase display.
    • Alternatively, it may be adjusted by rotating the crown in the first click position in the opposite direction of the date adjustment.
    • Consult a moon phase calendar to set it accurately.
  4. Chronograph Operation:
    • The top pusher (A) typically starts and stops the chronograph.
    • The bottom pusher (B) typically resets the chronograph hands to zero.

4. Operating Instructions

Your FANMIS watch is designed for ease of use with its multi-functional features.

  • Using the Chronograph:
    • Press the top pusher to start the chronograph. The chronograph second hand will begin to move.
    • Press the top pusher again to stop the chronograph. The elapsed time will be indicated by the chronograph hands.
    • Press the bottom pusher to reset all chronograph hands to their zero positions.
  • Luminous Function:
    • The watch hands are coated with a luminous material. For optimal glow in the dark, expose the watch to a bright light source for a period of time.
    • The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the exposure time and intensity of the light absorbed.

5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and function of your watch.

  • Water Resistance (30 Meters):
    • This watch is designed to withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water.
    • It is not suitable for swimming, bathing, soaking in water, or underwater work.
    • Avoid wearing the watch in a sauna, hot bath, or heated swimming pool, and do not wash your hands with hot water, as extreme temperature changes can compromise the water seals.
    • Avoid contact with corrosive substances.
  • Cleaning:
    • Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, dry cloth regularly.
    • For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and direct sunlight to prevent damage.

  • Avoid Magnets: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields to prevent interference with the quartz movement and ensure accurate timekeeping.
  • Battery Replacement: When the watch stops or the second hand moves erratically, the battery may need replacement. This should be performed by a qualified watch technician.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your watch, consider the following common solutions:

  • Watch Not Running:
    • Check if the crown is pushed all the way in.
    • The battery may be depleted. Seek professional replacement.
  • Date Not Changing:
    • Ensure the time is set correctly, especially past midnight for date change.
    • Adjust the date manually using the crown (first click position).
  • Chronograph Hands Not Resetting to Zero:
    • Press the bottom pusher firmly. If they still do not reset, a calibration may be needed by a professional.
  • Inaccurate Timekeeping:
    • Ensure the watch has not been exposed to strong magnetic fields.
