After an extended period of non-use, the movement must be set in
motion by winding the crown clockwise in its normal position
approximately 40 times.
Flush- The crown is fully screwed-down. The watch is completely sealed
and the movement protected.
(1st Position) For Manual Winding- Unscrew the crown
counterclockwise until it completely disengages from the threads. Once
there, begin to wind the crown clockwise about 25-30 times away from
you, do not go back and forth with the crown. This is only required if you
have not worn the watch for 1-2 days.
(2nd Position) Setting the Date- Unscrew the crown counterclockwise
until it until it completely disengages from the threads (the winding
position). With your thumb and forefinger slightly pull on the crown to
reach the 2nd extended position. To set the date, wind the crown
upwards (towards 12 o’clock) until you reach the appropriate date. When
completed, lightly push and screw the crown tightly back into place.
(3rd Position) Setting the Time- Unscrew the crown counterclockwise
until it pops out from the side (the winding position). Extend the crown
past the 2nd position, which is fully extended from the side. To set the
time, wind the crown clockwise or counterclockwise until you reach the
appropriate time. When completed, lightly push the crown back into
position 1 and gently screw the crown in clockwise direction, then tighten
it again until you feel some resistance. Do not force! You must always
ensure the crown is fully tightened before any use in water.

INTERCEPTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE BE ADVISED: engaging the date function when
dial hands are between 8pm - 2am can cause serious
damage to the calendar gears of the internal movement
as the watch gearing will already be aligning itself to
change the date. It is therefore vital to avoid adjusting
the calendar or moving the time backwards during this
period. Such damage is not covered under warranty. You
must advance the time past midnight before you can set
the date again.
