Setup
1. Initial Winding
As an automatic mechanical watch, it is powered by the motion of your wrist. If the watch has stopped or is running low on power, it requires an initial manual wind:
- Ensure the crown is in its fully pushed-in position (Position 0).
- Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will provide sufficient power reserve to start the watch.
- Wear the watch regularly to maintain its power reserve through natural wrist movement.
2. Setting Time and Date
To set the time and date functions:
- Time Adjustment: Pull the crown out to Position 2 (farthest out). Rotate the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Push the crown back to Position 0 when finished.
- Calendar Window (Date) Adjustment: Pull the crown out to Position 1 (middle position). Rotate the crown to adjust the date displayed in the calendar window. Push the crown back to Position 0 when finished.
- Week Pointer Adjustment: Use the 'Adjust Calendar Button' (top pusher) to advance the day of the week pointer.
- Month Pointer Adjustment: Use the 'Adjust Month Button' (bottom pusher) to advance the month pointer.

Operating Your Watch
Automatic Movement
This watch features an original imported automatic mechanical movement with 21 jewels, operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour. It has a power reserve of up to 45 hours. The watch is self-winding, meaning it charges through the natural motion of your arm. Consistent wear ensures continuous operation without the need for a battery.
Water Resistance (3ATM)
The watch is rated 3ATM (30 meters) water-resistant. This means it is suitable for daily activities such as hand washing, light rain exposure, or accidental splashes. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, showering with hot water, or any water sports where it might be submerged for extended periods or exposed to high-pressure water.
Luminous Function
The watch hands and markers are equipped with a luminous coating, allowing you to read the time in low-light or dark environments after exposure to light.

Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the watch case and strap with a soft, dry cloth regularly to remove dust and smudges. For the stainless steel strap, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
Storage
When not wearing the watch, store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. A watch box or pouch is recommended to protect it from scratches.
Water Resistance Care
To maintain the water resistance, ensure the crown is always fully pushed in. Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged. Water resistance is not a permanent feature and may decrease over time due to wear and tear or accidental impact. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked periodically by a professional.
Troubleshooting
- Watch not running or stopping frequently: As an automatic watch, it requires motion to operate. If not worn for an extended period, manually wind the watch by rotating the crown clockwise 30-40 times. Ensure you wear it regularly.
- Time or Date not setting correctly: Ensure the crown is pulled out to the correct position for time (Position 2) or date (Position 1) adjustment. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
- Condensation under the crystal: If you notice condensation, it indicates a breach in water resistance. Stop using the watch immediately and contact customer support for service.
