AUTOMATIC WATCH
This timepiece is equipped with a self-winding Mechanical Automatic movement.
It does not need a battery.
It is powered by the motions of the user’s own wrist during the wear of the
watch. You may also choose to wind the watch manually.
For more details on operating this timepiece please refer to the enclosed
booklet or visit : IM.RGMT.CO PLEASE READ THE
FOLLOWING BEFORE UNSCREWING THE CROWN:
SCREW-DOWN CROWN
Screw-down crowns are used to ensure water resistance. ALWAYS be certain that
your crown is securely screwed down ( Position [0] is secured.
Positions [1], [2] and [3] are not secured for water resistance ).
Do NOT unscrew your crown while you are in any environment where moisture is
present.
USING THE SCREW-DOWN CROWN
DO NOT PULL THE CROWN UNLESS IT IS 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 (see specific operating instructions on the following pages).
TO SCREW: Push the crown ALL THE WAY IN (towards the watch) THEN begin to
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.
BEFORE YOU USE THIS WATCH, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU MANUALLY WIND THE
MAINSPRING TO START IT MOVING.
THIS WATCH IS AN AUTOMATIC WATCH EQUIPPED WITH A MANUAL WINDING MECHANISM.
WINDING THE MAINSPRING
-
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.
HOW TO SET 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.* Take a.m./p.m. into consideration when setting the hour and minute hands to the desired time.
- Always be certain that your crown is SECURELY SCREWED; this will prevent moisture from entering in.
HOW TO SET 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.
* Do not set the date between 9:00 P.M. and 4:00 A.M.
HELIUM RELEASE VALVE
This RGMT timepiece is equipped with a Helium Release Valve.
It provides functionality for professional divers operating at great depths
for prolonged periods of time or under saturation.
When commercial divers operate at great depths, they often spend prolonged
hours in diving bells under pressure breathing a breathing gas that contains
the gases helium or hydrogen. Since helium atoms are the smallest natural gas
particles found in nature, these gas atoms are able to work their way inside
the watch, around any o-rings or other seals the watch may feature.
This is not a problem as long as the divers stay under pressure, but when the
decompression stops during resurfacing a pressure difference builds up between
the trapped gas inside the watch case and its environment. Depending on the
construction of the watch case and crystal, this effect can cause damage to
the watch, such as the crystal popping off.
The helium release valve does not need any manual intervention or adjustment,
it automatically releases the helium or hydrogen used in the breathing gas mix
trapped inside the watch case.
Please make sure to employ the screw-down crown on your timepiece for maximum
water protection.
WATER RESISTANCE
The water resistance indicated on your timepiece serves only as a guide.
Actual water resistance may vary depending on a number of important factors
including temperature, water salinity, and actual use under water.
The water resistance of your timepiece may eventually be compromised over time
with general wear and tear and the use of your watch 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 watertight seals used to
protect your watch.
The steam may cause condensation inside your watch, which may affect and
damage the inner workings of your watch – which would also not be covered by
the warranty.
