Care of your watch
Automatic watch movements, also known as self-winding, work by the action
of the wearer’s wrist causing the rotor in the watch movement to keep the
mainspring wound. When worn under normal conditions the watch should
store enough power in reserve to run correctly even if the watch is unworn for
up to a day. Eventually, the movement will stop, but can then be re-set and
worn again as normal. The movement of the wrist should be sufficient to keep
the watch running correctly.

Care of your watch continued ...
Your Accurist Automatic watch can also be wound manually, by turning the
crown (or winder) until you feel gentle resistance. Winding the watch manually,
from time to time, helps keep the movement lubricated.
* Please note, your watch WILL stop if left unworn or unwound for periods of time in excess of
20 hours.

13
Care of your watch continued ...
Avoid temperature extremes
1. Avoid leaving your watch in direct sunlight or in extremely warm conditions
for long periods of time.
2. Do not leave your watch for long periods of time in extremely cold places; this
may cause your watch to gain or lose time. Should it begin to gain or lose time,
place your watch on your wrist to restore its original accuracy naturally after
shaking slightly.
Avoid wet conditions
1. Do not operate the buttons when your watch is wet, even on models marked
’Water Resistant’.
2. Check case back markings and refer to the Resistance to water section.
