J U N G H A N S – T H E G E R M A N WAT C H
Many congratulations on your purchase of a timepiece from
Junghans.
What began in 1861 with the founding of the firm in Schramberg
quickly developed into one of the most fascinating success stories
of the German watchmaking industry. While since that time the
demands made of watches may have changed, the Junghans
philosophy has always remained the same. Innovative flair and the
constant pursuit of precision right down to the smallest detail
define how the company works and thinks. You can see and sense
this in every watch that carries the Junghans name. For as diverse
as the Junghans range may be, it pursues one single goal: to
combine traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge watch
technology and exciting design. That makes every watch with the
Junghans star unique.
We hope you will enjoy this very special time-keeping instrument.
Yours,
Uhrenfabrik Junghans GmbH & Co. KG

Instructions for use
Calibre J880.1
Important note:
Do not make any changes to the date between 08:00 p.m. and 02:00
a.m., as the date is automatically advanced by the movement during
this period and you could damage the date advance mechanism.
Winding up the watch
With the winder in position A, you can wind up the automatic move-
ment manually. At least 2 to 3 rotations of the winder are needed to
start the movement. It is better to wind it up completely. It is fully
wound up after approx. 40 rotations of the winder, as then the maxi-
mum accuracy and its power reserve (even after the watch is put down)
will last for the maximum period.If your model has a screw-locked
winder, this must be un screwed by turning it to the left to start your
watch going. After you have set your watch, you should wear it, so that
the automatic winding system (via rotor movement) keeps it constant-
ly operational.

Setting the time
Pull the winder into position C. That stops the watch movement.
To set your watch accurately to the second, it is best to stop the
movement as the second hand is passing the figure 60. You can now
position the minute hand precisely in line with the relevant minute
marker and set the desired time. Press the winder back into position A
to start the second hand.

Setting the date and day of week
Pull the winder into position B. You can now set the date by turning it
to the right and the day of the week by turning it to the left. Do not
make any changes to the date and day between 08:00 p.m. and 02:00
a.m., as the date and day is automatically advanced by the movement
during this period and you could damage the advance mechanism. If
the month has less than 31 days, set the date manually to the first day
of the following month.
Using the chronoscope
Starting time measurement:
You start the chronoscope by pressing the start-stop button (10).
Stopping time measurement:
You stop the chronoscope by pressing the start-stop button (10) again.
Reset:
Press the reset button (11). This returns all three of the stopwatch hands
to their starting position.
Adding measured times:
After measuring the first time, you can add times together by pressing
the start-stop button again instead of the reset button. The chrono-
scope hands will then continue running from the stopped position.

General information
External influences can affect the watch’s waterproof qualities, which
may let in moisture. We therefore recommend that you have your
watch regularly inspected by your Junghans specialist. Other servicing
tasks or wrist strap repairs should also be done by your Junghans
specialist. Your watch is fitted with a quality wrist strap that has under-
gone multiple inspections in our factory. If, however, you decide to
change the strap, please fit a new one of the same quality, preferably an
original Junghans wrist strap. Watch and wrist strap can be cleaned
with a dry or slightly moistened cloth. NB: Do not use che mical clean-
ers (e.g. benzine or paint thinners). These may harm the surface.
