Battery
This KHS Platoon Chronograph possesses a high-quality Swiss quartz movement that is
battery-powered such that winding is not necessary According to the movement's manu-
facturer, the battery should last 60 months with a rate variation of just approx ±0 66 seconds
a day You only have to set the time and date
Since the battery is installed by the manufacture to check the functionality of the movement,
its expected useful life may be less than cited due to time in storage If the battery is dis-
charged, it should always be replaced as soon as possible in order to prevent any possible
battery leakage We recommend that you have the battery replaced by an authorised
KHS dealer
IMPORTANT: Even though the manufacture of the movement cites a service life of up to 36
months for the quartz movement installed in this KHS Platoon Chronograph, we would
advise you to have the battery replaced every 24 months or 2 years at least! Doing so ensures
that there is no possible battery leakage, which could result in repairing or replacing the
entire watch movement
