ETACHYMETER*
The Tachymeter is used to measure the speed of a vehicle. By knowing how many
seconds the vehicle to travel one kilometre, the tachymeter can measure the
approximate average speed in km/h during a journey (over a maxinum measurable time
of 60 seconds).
If the chronograph is started at the same time as the start of the distance measurement,
and stopped after 1km, the average speed can be calculated from the position of the
second hand. If the vehicle covers the distance one km in 45 seconds, the approximate
average speed is 80 km/h.
* Not available on all models

TELEMETER*
The Telemeter is a distance indicator which allows distance to be calculated on the
basis of the speed of sound. It is useful, therefore, for aviation, navy, army and artillery
purposes. It can also measure how far away a thunderstorm is.
The hand is started the second a flash, smoke or lightning is seen and stopped when
the actual sound is heard. The distance, from 1 to 20 kilometres, between the observer
and the explosion or storm is read from the telemetry scale.
* Not available on all models.

Degree of water resistance
- In order to prevent water from coming into contact with the internal mechanism, never
pull the crown out when the watch is wet.
- If any watches designed for sportswear or use in water come into contact with salt
water or heavy sweating, they should be rinsed in fresh water and dried thoroughly.

- Contact with water may cause a deterioration in the quality of some leather straps.
- As internal parts of the watch can retain moisture, when the outside temperature is
lower than the inside, the watch glass may mist-up.
This phenomenon is purely temporary and should not create any problems. However,
if it persists for any length of time, the watch should be checked by the shop where it
was purchased or by the nearest Authorised Service Centre.

Temperature
Do not leave the watch exposed to direct sunlight or temperature extremes for long
periods of time.
Long exposure, in fact, may adversely affect the operation of the watch and actually
shorten battery life, causing it to gain or lose time and affect its other functions.
Impact
This watch can withstand normal everyday impacts and shocks and those normally
imparted by non-contact sports. Serious damage, however, may result if the watch is
dropped or subjected to severe shock.
Magnetic fields
This watch is antimagnetic up to 60 gauss, and is therefore not affected by magnetic
fields produced by normal domestic appliances. If used near strong magnetic fields, its
operation may be temporarily affected.
Static electricity
The integrated circuits present inside the watch are sensitive to static electricity. If the
watch is exposed to intense electrical fields, the time display may temporarily lose some
of its accuracy.
Chemicals and gases
Avoid wearing the watch in the presence of strong gases or chemical substances. Parts of
the watch may discolour, dissolve or even break if brought into contact with benzene or
petroleum-based products such as solvents, thinners, detergents, adhesives etc.
Pay special attention to avoiding contact with chemicals.
1_CAL FS10_GB 25-02-2005 10:31 Pagina 10

11
The watch case and strap may discolour if they come into contact with mercury from a
broken thermometer or other equipment.
Keeping the watch clean
Use an absorbent soft cloth to clean off any dirt or damp from the watch glass.
Wearing the watch when the strap or back of the case is dirty can cause skin
irritation.
Cleaning the watch strap:
•
Metal bands: use a toothbrush and soapy warm to wash the dirt off.
•
Plastic or rubber straps: wash with water. Do not use solvents.
•
Leather straps: gently rub the face of the strap using a soft dry cloth. Clean the
opposite side with a cloth and alcohol.
Periodic inspection
In order to guarantee long trouble-free operation, it is advisable to have the watch
checked by an Authorised Assistance Centre once every two years.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children
If a battery is accidentally swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
