Precautions to be taken when diving
PROHIBITED Do not use this watch while diving when...
CAUTION Diving with the watch
• Do not use your watch while diving when the watch stops or exhibits any
abnormal operation.
• Persons using the diver’s watch are strongly recommended to receive proper
instruction and training pertaining to diving and observe those rules at all times.
• Please use this watch properly only after you fully understand the operating
procedures and cautions.
Using this watch other than as indicated in this instruction manual may result in
failure of the watch to function properly.
• Check the water-resistant indications on the watch face or the case back. Never
dive beyond the indicated depth.

Safety precautions
CAUTION Before diving
CAUTION During diving
CAUTION After diving
• Check items below before diving
- Make sure that the mainspring is fully wounded
- Make sure that the watch is running correctly (check the movements of the
time/calendar/second hand)
- Make sure that the crown is fully pushed in and its screw is tighten firmly
- Make sure that the band is firmly anchored to the watch body.
- Make sure that there are no cracks or other damage to the watch band or the
glass face.
- Make sure that the register ring rotates properly.
• Do not operate the crown in the water. Operating any of them in water may cause
trouble including deterioration of water resistance.
• Be careful not to hit the watch against hard objects such as equipment or rocks.
• Check to see if the crown is pushed in and locked before removing the sea water,
dirt, and sand attached to the watch with fresh water. Then, wipe the fresh water.

Characteristics of Mechanical watches
About time accuracy of mechanical watches
The time accuracy described on this instruction manual is the static accuracy
at normal temperature. The accuracy of mechanical watches may get out of the
described range depending on the following three usage conditions or other reasons.
• Winding amount of the mainspring
• Attitude
• Usage environment (temperature, magnetism, impact, etc.)
Winding amount of the mainspring
Mechanical watches keep accuracy
most stably when the mainspring is
sufficiently wound.
Attitude
Accuracy of mechanical watches varies
affected by gravity. The accuracy varies
as the result that may take various
attitude while worn and gravitate to a
different direction every moment.

8
Usage environment (temperature, magnetism, impact, etc.)
• Metal parts are used for the part for keeping accuracy in mechanical watch. The
accuracy varies affected by their thermal expansion and contraction.
• Metal parts are used in mechanical watches. Magnetism affects them and
accuracy of the watches in consequence. Do not bring them close to things which
have or generate strong magnetism.
• Strong shocks may also affect the accuracy.
Maintenance
Mechanical watches may become inaccurate due to insufficient lubrication or worn
parts. Have the watch disassembled and cleaned (overhaul) every 2-3 years (charge
basis). It may be difficult to restore the watch from degradation after long-term use
to its initial performance even after repairs.

Features
■
Water-resistant to 200m
• This watch is a SCUBA diver’s watch (water-resistant to 200m). You can use it
for SCUBA diving with air tanks, but must not be used in a helium-enriched
atmosphere (e.g. saturation diving).
■
Automatic winding movement
• A automatic winding movement is employed in which the watch mainspring
is wound automatically by movement of the hand when worn, and the force of
the mainspring is then used to drive the movement (watch).
[Automatic winding]
When worn on the wrist, the normal movement of the arm will wind the mainspring.
[Manual winding]
Rotate the crown clockwise while it is in position to wind the mainspring.

10
Band adjustment
We recommend seeking the assistance of an experienced watch technician
for sizing of your watch. If adjustment is not done correctly, the bracelet may
unexpectedly become detached leading to loss of your watch or injury (excluding
products containing the band adjustment tool).
Consult an authorized service center.
Protective stickers
Be sure to remove any protective stickers that may be on your watch (case back,
band, clasp, etc.). Otherwise, perspiration or moisture may enter the gaps between
the protective stickers and the parts, which may result in a skin rash and/or
corrosion of the metal parts.

Cautions for this automatic winding watch
• The mainspring of this watch is automatically wound when it is worn on your
wrist. But when not worn, the mainspring will run out in about 2 days and the
watch will stop.
• Wind the mainspring sufficiently before adjusting the time (the hour and minute
hands).

This watch runs using the power of the mainspring.
• Once the mainspring is wound fully, it will run for about 42 hours.
• Sufficient winding ensures stable and accurate movement.
Winding the mainspring
This watch is an automatic mechanical watch. (You can also wind the mainspring
manually.) The mainspring is wound by swinging your arm. It is recommended to
wear the watch for more than 8 hours a day. If you do not move your arms much
in your daily life, for example you spend a lot of time sat at a desk, the mainspring
may not be wound sufficiently. In such cases, wind the mainspring manually.
Mainspring
CAUTION
This watch is equipped with the screw down crown to get higher water resistance.
Rotate the crown counterclockwise to unlock it before its operation. After the
operation, push the crown in to the normal position, then rotate it clockwise
while pressing it toward the case to tighten the screw firmly.

15
English
• When the watch stops, turning the crown about 40 times will wind the
mainspring fully.
• When the mainspring is wound fully, turning the crown further does not damage
the mainspring.
Winding the mainspring manually
Push the crown in position . Hold the crown with your thumb and index finger
and rotate it clockwise slowly.

Read the position of the scale on the
rotating bezel which the minute hand
points to find the elapsed time.
• 10 minutes has passed in the illustration.
You can find the elapsed time of diving or remaining time to a target time.
• To prevent accidents, the rotating bezel moves counterclockwise only.
