MOVEMENT WINDING
The manual-winding mechanical movement developed in-house delivers a 5-day
power reserve. After this period, you must wind your watch to provide the
necessary energy for it to run.
In order to maintain perfect symmetry, the KS 05 Central Floating Tourbillon
case has no traditional crown. On the case back, a D-ring crown is stowed out
of sight to help maintain the timepiece’s sleek, spaceage styling.
This mechanism enables faster winding than with a traditional crown.
To wind your watch, lift the D-ring
crown and turn it counterclockwise until you feel some resistance, meaning
that the watch has been wound. To fully wind your watch, 23 complete turns are
needed.
TIME SETTING
The hours and minutes are displayed in a unique peripheral format, made
possible by a planetary gear system that orbits 360° around the tourbillon.
To set the time, press the “Time Set” push button. Lift the D-ring crown –
located on the case-back – synchronously and turn clockwise until the exact
time is set. When setting the time, there may be some resistance as the watch
will be wound simultaneously.
Note:
You might turn the D-crown counterclockwise. In this case, go back 10 minutes
before the actual time. Then, turn it clockwise until adjusting the exact
time. It enables the gear train to go back to its functioning position.
INTERCHANGEABLE STRAPS
The KS 05 Central Floating Tourbillon is equipped with an interchangeable
strap system, a practical feature where two quickrelease buttons are hidden on
the underside of the case.
Push each button to release the strap.
BUCKLE OPENING
Press simultaneously the two push buttons located on the sides of the clasp to
open the buckle.
BUCKLE RELEASE
To detach the buckle, no tools are required. Simply pull the lever located
under the clasp and it will release the strap.
To fix the buckle, start by inserting the right side of the buckle on the
spring bar. Pull the lever and insert the left side.
Make sure the spring bar is securely in place by pulling few times the
strap.
REGULAR CARE
REGULAR CARE OF THE KS 05 CENTRAL FLOATING TOURBILLON
The tourbillon remains one of the main horological complications and bears the
mark of the most talented watchmakers. Caution and care are required to ensure
the longevity of your watch. To handle it properly, a set of gloves and a soft
microfiber cloth are provided in a box along with your KS 05 Central Floating
Tourbillon. We strongly recommend wearing gloves every time the watch is
manipulated for winding or time setting. It will enable a better gripping and
help prevent any risk of scratching.
The watch has a water
resistance of 30 meters. We recommend avoiding sea water. Clean regularly your
watch by wiping down carefully with the soft microfiber cloth. If needed, you
may use a solvent-free cleaner to spray on the cloth. Do not spray any liquid
directly on the watch.
