BOETTGER Watch
Product Information:
The watch is equipped with a self-winding Mechanical Automatic
movement that doesn’t require a battery. It is powered by the
user’s wrist movements during the wear of the watch, and can also
be manually wound. The watch has an hour hand, a second hand, a
uni-directional turning bezel, a minute hand, and a screw-down
crown that ensures water resistance. The watch also has a date
feature.
Product Usage Instructions:
Using the Screw-Down Crown:
- Do not pull the crown unless it is unscrewed first.
- To unscrew, turn the crown anti-clockwise until it turns freely
without tension. - Gently pull the crown out to the desired position for watch
setting. - To screw, push the crown all the way in towards the watch, then
turn clockwise until it is securely screwed down. - Note: Failure to securely screw down the crown after setting
the watch may affect its water resistance.
Winding the Mainspring:
- Unscrew the crown by turning it anti-clockwise.
- When it is in position [1], turn the crown clockwise to wind.
Wind 15-20 times and it will start to move naturally after shaking
slightly. - Push the crown in then screw it securely.
- Note: This watch must be worn for at least 8 hours each day to
ensure it is fully wound. Winding the watch by the crown will put
power on the spring but not enough to allow the watch to function
fully.
Setting the Time:
- Unscrew the crown and pull it out to position [3] (2nd
click). - Turn the crown clockwise to set the correct time.
- Push the crown in then screw it securely.
- Note: Take a.m./p.m. into consideration when setting the hour
and minute hands to the desired time.
Important Notes:
- If your watch is running smoothly, do not wind the crown to
avoid overwinding the movement. Provided you are wearing the watch
frequently, it should have sufficient power to operate without any
fuss. - If your watch has stopped running after a period of not wearing
the watch, gently move the watch side to side 20 to 30 times to
move the rotor or gently turn the crown 5 to 10 times to get the
second hand run at its normal speed.

* This watch MUST be worn for at least 8 (Eight) hours each day to ensure it is fully wound. An automatic watch will only wind when the watch is on your wrist and your arm moves. Winding the watch by the crown will put power on the spring but not enough to allow the watch to function fully. If your watch stops overnight or loses time it means it is not being fully wound.

WATER RESISTANCE
7.
Note that the water resistance chart serves only as a guide (please refer to the water resistance chart on the next page). Actual water resistance may vary depending on a number of factors including water temperature, water salinity and use under water.
The water resistance of your timepiece may eventually be compromised over time with general wear and tear and use of your timepiece under adverse conditions.

Always remember to employ the screw down crown if available to maintain the water resistance of your timepiece. Warranty may be voided if the screw down crown has not been properly employed.
Finish
Note that you should NEVER wear your watch in a jacuzzi, hot shower or steam room where steam may enter the case despite the watertight seals used to protect your watch.
This may cause condensation inside your
watch, which may affect and damage the

inner workings of your watch.
