Our Story – Your Watch:
Our story is simple... It’s about building a better watch. It’s a Promise of Performance™ to you that is
derived from a belief that innovative design and attention to detail matter. It is this focus, passion, and
integrity that drive us in the watches we make for you.

need to possess the qualities of durability, singularity of purpose, and versatility. Designed to balance form
and function, to be equally rugged and refined, with a classic, understated, enduring style... distinctly a
Bertucci®Field Watch™. Ready to survive the day to day challenges that come your way... wherever they
may be.

A-2TR STANDARD: Time Setting:
(Note: A red crown clip may be on setting crown - please carefully remove.)
1Turn crown counter clock-wise to unscrew (see fig. 1 to the right). The crown is completely unscrewed
when it turns freely. (Note: If crown is already in the out position or unscrewed, with second hand stopped, go to step 2.)
2Gently and carefully pull crown out to stop second hand. Do not pull too hard (fig. 2).
3Rotate the crown clock-wise advancing the hour and minute hands to set the desired time (fig. 3).
4Push crown in to re-start second hand (fig. 4).
5Push in again and turn crown clock-wise to engage threads. Continue to turn clockwise to firmly screw/
re-thread down crown. (A screwed down crown will prevent water damage to the movement.)
Do not overtighten (fig. 5).

Using The Rotating Bezel Ring:
Equipped with a solid titanium unidirectional rotating ring.
ELAPSED TIME
For simple quick method to measure up to 60 minutes... rotate the bezel ring counter clock-wise so that
the red triangle (the 0 minute marker) aligns with the minute hand. As the minute hand moves as time
passes, the time elapsed is shown on the outer ring minute markings where the minute hand has moved to.
COUNTDOWN TIME
Similar to the elapsed time is the countdown time. Instead of time increments going from zero to 60
minutes, they go from 60 minutes to zero. This can be useful for pilots or military or police operations
where synchronization is key and knowing when it’s time to go is critical. Set the desired time to match the
minute hand and when it reaches zero (red triangle), you’d better be on the move.
COMPASS
The rotating bezel ring may be used to find the direction during daylight hours. Substitute the markings at
“0”, “15”, “30”, and “45” for the directions North, East, South, and West respectively. See Illustrations to
the right:
Note 1: For use during daylight hours only, readjust every hour.
Note 2: For use during standard time, during Daylight Saving Time back the watch up an hour to account for this.
Note 3: This is an approximate system, there is no substitute for a compass.
A - Point the Hour hand at the sun.
B - Rotate the bezel ring until S (South / red
triangle) is half way between the hour hand
and 12:00.
C - The correct directions are shown on the dial.

1Turn crown counter clock-wise to unscrew (see fig. 1 to the right). The crown is completely unscrewed
when it turns freely. (Note: If crown is already in the out position or unscrewed, with second hand
stopped, go to step 2.)

3Turn crown clock-wise to advance the date... continue to advance the date to yesterday’s date (fig. 3).
4Turn crown counter clock-wise to set the GMT/ 2nd time zone. Move 4th red arrow hand to hour on
inner dial showing 2 through 24. (Note: 2nd time zone will utilize the same minute hand as primary time
zone.) (fig. 4).
5Carefully pull the crown out further to 2nd position for a second “click” to set primary time. Rotate the
crown clock-wise to advance the time past midnight and you will see the date advance to today’s date.
Continue to advance to set the desired time. This will ensure the AM/PM is correct (fig. 5). Note: Date
will need to be reset for months not ending with 31 days.
