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 hold in while turning 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 prior to 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 in 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 watch so that the sleeve does not cover all or part of the dial and impede charging. Store 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 may cause the watch to become hot. Handle with care.
• After many years of use, if the battery becomes unable to charge fully, it may be replaced with a new rechargeable battery of the same type. Please see BATTERY section for details.

Hand-wind Movement: To start your watch remove the plastic guard from under the crown, set the Time and Date (if applies) then press the crown in against the case. Slowly turn the crown clock-wise until you feel resistance. You should hear the watch “ticking” and the second hand will begin to move. If the watch stops in the next 24 hours, you should increase the amount of clock- wise turns of the crown during the winding process until you find the watch will work for 24 hours without stopping. You should wind the watch each 24-hour period at approximately the same time of day to ensure the watch does not become fully un-wound and stops. If the watch stops, follow the instructions to set the Time and Date (if applies), and wind to start the watch again.

PERPETUAL CALENDAR

Your Perpetual Calendar watch accurately keeps track of how many days are in each month. It also adjusts for leap years. The date on your watch (including the month and year) was preset at the factory to Eastern Standard Time, Greenwich Mean Time or Hong Kong Standard Time (depending on where you purchased your watch). You only need to adjust the time.

TO SET TIME

• To set time, simply pull crown all the way out and turn. Day and date change automatically when time is adjusted past midnight; there is no additional step for setting day or date. Push crown in when done.
• After setting, if date changes at noon, time needs to be adjusted ahead or back 12 hours.
• If crown is accidentally put in MIDDLE position and turned, date display will change temporarily, but date setting is unaffected. Simply pull crown all the way out and set time. Proper date display will resume.

PERPETUAL CALENDAR WATCH FREE LIFETIME BATTERY REPLACEMENT**

RING INSTRUCTIONS

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 of an 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 towards 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 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’clock position).
• 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 at the letters “N”, “E”, “W”, “S” (for the four compass directions) or compass degrees, you can use this feature to find an approximate compass directional reading.

1. Lay the watch on a flat surface, or hold it so that the face is parallel to the ground.
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 hour hand and 12:00 (after the hour hand or within the shortest distance between the hour hand and 12:00).
4. In the P.M., rotate the ring until “S” is before the hour hand and halfway between the hour hand and 12:00.
