HOW TO START YOUR WATCH
Quartz Movement: To start your watch remove the plastic guard from under the crown, then press the crown in against the case. The second hand will begin advancing in one-second intervals. Some deep-depth water-resistant watches require the setting crown to be screwed in to secure water-  resistance. If your watch case has a protrusion with screw threads, the crown must be screwed in after setting the watch. To screw in, push the crown firmly against the threaded protrusion and holding whihold the crown clockwise. Continue to screw in the crown until it is tight. You will need to unscrew the crown (counter- clockwise) before pulling it out the next time you want to set your watch.
Solar Movement: The watch includes a solar cell that charges its battery. Expose the watch in direct sunlight, sunlight through a window, or artificial(indoor) lighting to charge the battery before use. When fully charged, the watch may function without additional charging for up to 2 months. To start your watch, remove the plastic guard from under the crown, then press the crown against the case. The second hand will begin advancing in one-second intervals. Charging happens faster while in direct sunlight and slower when indoors. A  depleted battery may be charged by exposing the dial to sunlight for several days. Wear a atch so that the sleeve does not cover all or part of the dial and impede charging. Store the watch where it will be exposed to light or the battery will run down and require a full charge. See the table below for more information.

WARNING: Leaving the watch in direct sunlight or close to a lamp maycause the watch to become hot. Handle with care. After many years of use, if the battery becomes unable to charge fully, itmay be replacedd with a new rechargeable battery of the same type. Please see the ATTERY section for details.

ELAPSED TIME RING
If your watch is equipped with a rotatable outer ring on the face, with numbers corresponding to minutes, you can use this Elapsed Time Ring to time an activity from the start, or to mark the ending time for the duration activity.

TO TIME AN ACTIVITY FROM THE START:
Set the Start/Stop triangle at the time (hour or minute) when you start the activity (As shown on the left in the illustration shown below). At completion, you can see how long the activity took.

TO MEASURE THE TIME REMAINING:
Set the triangle to the hour or minute position when you wish to complete the activity, and check the watch periodically for progress toward that goal. In the illustration shown on the previous page on the right you can stop when the minute hand reaches the 20 minutes past the hour position

TACHYMETER RING
The tachymeter feature can be used to measure speed in miles per hour (MPH), nautical miles per hour (knots), or kilometers, ers per hour (KPH) using the sweep second hand and the scale on the wall above the watch face. You need to know the actual distance you are covering in miles or km. Start the chronograph with the second hand at zero (the twelve O’Connor within the first minute, the second hand will point to the rate for a one-mile (or one- kilometer) course: if it takes 45 seconds, the hand will point to 80 at that position – 80 MPH or 80 KPH. If within the first minute, a distance greater than one mile or kilometer is covered, multiply the tachymeter number by the distance to get the actual rate: if you went 1.2 miles in 45 seconds, multiply the 80 by 1.2 – 96 MPH.
COMPASS RING
If your watch is equipped with a movable ring around the dial marked with the letters“N”, “E”, “W”, or “S” (for the four compass directions) or compass degrees, you can use this feature to find an approximate compass directional reading.

  2. Locate the sun and point the hour hand at the sun.
  3. In the A.M., rotate the ring until the “S” (south) marker is halfway between the honored and noon (after the hour hand or within the shortest distance between the honored and noon).
  4. In the P.M., rotate the ring until “S” is before the hour hand and halfway between the hour hand and 12:00.
