How to use

Quartz Watch (Battery-operated)
Since it runs on batteries, it stops when the battery runs out and it needs to be replaced each time. The battery life is about 1 to 2 years depending on the models.

How to adjust the time

• Pull out the crown.
• Return the crown to its original position.
• Turn the crown and adjust the time. (The hands turn in the direction of the watch.)

ATTENTION

• Vintage quartz watches have a 1-minute difference per month, so you need to adjust the time each time.
• If there is a significant time lag, maintenance is required.
• When the battery remains stopped, it may leak and cause the watch to malfunction.
• It may be impossible to repair the movement, so we recommend replacing the battery as soon as possible when it runs out.

Hand-winding watch

• Hand-winding watches are operated by the power of the unwinding spring after you wind it manually.
• The hand-winding watches can be operated for 30 to 36 hours depending on the model.

How to adjust the time

• Wind the crown about 25 ~ 30 times toward the arrow. (The number of times of winding depends on the model.)
• You can stop winding when the crown starts to become hard to turn.
• Adjust the time to pull out the crown.

ATTENTION

• Please be careful not to wind too hard as the spring may be cut.
• Vintage hand-winding watches may cause a 1-minute difference a day, so please adjust the time every time you wind.
• It may also stop or cause a time difference when the winding is insufficient.
• If there is a significant time lag, the maintenance is required.

Automatic watch
The arm movement automatically winds up the spring when wearing the watch. It would help if you wind up the spring by turning the crown before use.

How to adjust the time

• Wind the crown about 20 to 30 times toward the arrow. (Unlike hand-winding watches, the spring does not stop even over-winding.)
• Pull the crown and adjust the time.

ATTENTION

• Depending on the model, please roll the spring by swinging the watch.
• Vintage automatic watches have a one-minute difference per day, so you need to adjust the time each time.
• It may also stop or cause a time difference when the winding is insufficient.
• If there is a significant time lag, the maintenance is required.

Screwed type crown
A screw-type crown is to be installed to protect the airtightness inside the watch. This seals the watch to protect it from water and dust.

How to use a screw-type crown

• Unlike a normal crown, you need to turn it counterclockwise to unlock.
• When you lock, push the crown while turning it towards noon.
• When you feel anything different or uncomfortable when pushing the crown, do not push it forcefully and lose it once before trying again.

ATTENTION

• If you forget to close the crown, moisture may enter inside.
• Please lock the crown after adjusting the time since water may get inside when it stays unlocked.

Cartier

The Must Series
The Must Series has a silver case with a gold or rhodium coating. It may be darkened in use, which is peculiar to silver (sulfurization), but it is not rust.

ATTENTION

• Gently rub with silicon cloth to remove only blackheads.
• Recoating is also available. Please feel free to ask us.

D buckle
The Cartier D buckle looks so clean and beautiful, and it is also easy to adjust the length. < Caution > When removing the buckle, push it up with your thumb.
