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 other desired positions
for watch setting. To SCREW, push the crown ALL THE WAY IN (towards
the watch) THEN begin to turn clockwise until it is securely
screwed down. Failure to SECURELY screw down the crown after
setting the watch may affect its water resistance.
Winding the Mainspring
Before using the watch, it is recommended to manually wind the
mainspring to start it moving. Unscrew the crown by turning it
anti-clockwise. When it is in position [1], turn the crown
clockwise to wind. Wind 5-10 times and it will start to move
naturally after shaking slightly. Push the crown in then screw it
securely. 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.
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.
Setting the Date
Unscrew the crown and pull it out to position [2]. Turn the
crown anti-clockwise to set the correct date. Push the crown in
then screw it securely.

W ATER RESISTANCE
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.
Note that you should NEVER wear your watch in a jacuzzi, hot shower or steam room where steam may enter the case despite the water tight seals used to protect your watch.
This may cause condensation inside your watch, which may affect and damage the inner workings of your watch.
