INSTRUCTIONS & WARRANTY
Clubmaster DIVER

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations for the acquisition of your BRISTON
watch, and thank you for your condence.
The Clubmaster DIVER is the rst watch of the BRISTON
collection to be equipped with a mechanical movement
with automatic winding, featuring a power reserve up
to 41 hours. The bidirectional inner rotating ring allows
measuring your immersion & collapsing time during
your diving sessions.
We invite you to consult the operating instructions
and hope your BRISTON timepiece brings you great
enjoyment.
INSTRUCTIONS
The BRISTON Clubmaster DIVER watch must be serviced
regularly in order to work correctly.
The time left between services will vary depending on the
model, climate and amount of care you take of your watch.
> Temperature: avoid temperatures exceeding 0/100°F;
-20/+40°C and extreme conditions.
> Avoid prolonged exposure to sun, water and steam to
prevent distortion and color fading.
> Avoid contact with alcohol, perfume, detergents and
cosmetic products to prevent corrosion.
> Screwing winder: screw the winder carefully to prevent any
water entering the mechanism.
> Check your model’s ATM level so that you know how deep
you can use it. (20 ATM = 200 meters of depth – 660 feet).

WATER RESISTANCE
Your BRISTON watch is water-resistant to 20 bars. The water-
resistance of your watch is identiable by the symbol 20 ATM
engraved on the back. This means that your timepiece has
been tested at an overpressure of 20 bars, corresponding to
an immersion pressure of 200 meters (1 bar = ~10 meters).
In order to guarantee the durability of the watch’s characteristics
over time and as the water-resistance may be affected by
certain activities, it is recommended for the user to:
> have the water-resistance of the watch checked by an
authorized BRISTON dealer, and in the event of any case
opening, it is recommended for the test to be carried out with
increased air pressure,
> check when purchasing the watch that the strap or bracelet
is suitable for the intended use,
> avoid subjecting the watch to excessively abrupt temperature
changes,
> protect the watch from being dropped or suffering other
shocks (please, have the watch checked after any violent
impact),
> avoid the use of the controls, time-setting crown while under
water or before the watch has dried after immersion,
> restore & screw-back the time-setting crown to its normal
position against the case after every manipulation,
> rinse the watch with fresh water after any use in seawater.
Please also note that leather straps are not suitable for aquatic
activities.
Furthermore, it is vital to have the water-resistance of your
watch checked by an authorised BRISTON retailer at
least once every two years, and before any period during
which it is liable to undergo prolonged and/or regular
immersions.

ACCURACY
Manually-wound or automatic mechanical watches
The precision of watch models with mechanical movements
is determined by the balance. This oscillates at a rate of
21,600 vibrations per hour. Despite all the care that we have
taken on building and assembling your watch, its accuracy
is subject to the inuence of gravity, magnetic elds, impacts
and ageing of the oils. The precision of a watch is measured
by its regularity of rate in various positions. Your individual
temperament and your activities could be the cause of slight
irregularities.
If you observe a discrepancy in the running of your watch, we
advise you to entrust it to an authorized BRISTON retailer who
will make the necessary adjustments.

SETTING OF YOUR BRISTON WATCH
First time using your BRISTON watch
Your Clubmaster DIVER is equipped with a screwed-down
crown. Before rewinding the watch, it is therefore necessary
to unscrew the crown by turning it anticlockwise. The crown is
thus freed by a spring.

1.The watch is switched on thanks to the crown B located at
4 o’clock.
2.Unscrew anticlockwise the crown B to reach the position 1.
The spring is now released.
3. Push again the crown B into position 1. Then screw back
the crown against the case by turning it clockwise in order to
preserve the water resistance of your watch.
The watch is now working again.

stopped (« stop second » function). Move the hands clockwise
until the desired time.
3.Push again the crown B into position 1. Then screw back
the crown against the case by turning it clockwise in order to
preserve the water resistance of your watch. The second hand
starts again when the winder is pushed back into its normal
position.

Setting the date
1.Unscrew anticlockwise the crown B situated at 4 o’clock to
reach the position 1.
2.Gently pull the winder out (crown B) into the position 2. Turn
the winder (crown) anticlockwise to set the date.
3.Push again the crown B into position 1 & screw down the
crown against the case by turning it clockwise in order to
preserve the water resistance of your watch.
The watch is now working again.
Never make a date correction when the watch shows a
time between 10 PM and 2 AM. The automatic mechanism
of date change is activated during this period of time and
the movement could be damaged.

Reading of immersion time & use of the inner ring
1. Turn the crown A situated at 2 o’clock to activate & turn the
bidirectional inner ring.
2. Position the triangle of the inner ring in front of the minutes
hand when you begin your immersion.
3. You can read the immersion time indicated on the inner
ring using the minute hand & the indication on the inner ring.

N.B. : Do not turn the crown A once the immersion is
engaged otherwise the reading of immersion time can be
wrong.
You can use the red area indicated on the inner bezel as a
countdown. This area indicates you that it is time to go back
up to the surface so it can be used to time the decompression
stops when the diver goes back to the surface.
