HOW TO START YOUR WATCH

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.

WATER AND SHOCK RESISTANCE
If your watch is water-resistant, meter marking (WR_M) is indicated.

Water-Resistance Depth	*p.s.i.a. Water pressure Below Surface**
30m/98ft	60
50m/164ft	86
100m/328ft	160
200m/656ft	284

pounds per square inch absolute

WARNING: TO MAINTAIN WATER-RESISTANCE, DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTONS OR PULL OUT THE CROWN UNDER WATER UNLESS YOUR WATCH IS INDICATED AS 200 METER WATER- RESISTANT.

Watch is water-resistant only as long as crystal, crown and case remain intact.
Watch is not a diver watch and should not be used for diving.
Rinse watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water.
Shock-resistance will be indicated on the watch face or caseback. Watches are designed to pass ISO test for shock-resistance. However, care should be taken to avoid damaging the crystal.

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 onemile (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.

Lay the watch on a flat surface, or hold it so that the face is parallel to the ground.
Locate the sun and point the hour hand at the sun.
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).
In the P.M., rotate the ring until “S” is before the hour hand and halfway between the hour hand and 12:00.

HOW TO ADJUST BRACELET

(Variations of the following bracelet sections apply to all watch models).
