or material of cases, straps, bracelets and chains
made of leather, textile, rubber or any other

indirectly from using the LONGINES watch or from

CONTENTS
We are delighted you have become the owner of
a LONGINES watch. We recommend you read
this instruction manual carefully before using your
LONGINES watch for the first time in order to en-
sure its correct operation and long life. If you would
like more information about your watch or if it is
fitted with a complication, you can find detailed in-
formation and tutorials by going

Precautions concerning water-
resistance
A watch’s water-resistance can be affected by
changes caused by the gaskets drying out, or an ac-
cidental shock to the crown. To help maintain your
watch’s water-resistance, we recommend rinsing it
in soft water after any contact with sea water and
having its water-resistance checked once a year by
an approved LONGINES Service Centre. In no cir-
cumstances should you open your watch yourself.
IMPORTANT! Never activate the time-setting crown
and/or push-pieces when the watch is underwater,
and ensure that the crown and push-pieces are
pushed in or screwed down before any immersion
in water.
*The water-resistance values given in metres are
equivalent to pressure applied in accordance with
standard ISO 22810.

time, correcting the date or winding, by turning it anti-clockwise. After making the settings, return the crown
to position 1, then push it back in and screw it in firmly to ensure the watch's water resistance.

Date correction
Pull the crown out to position 2. Turn the crown
quickly either way, to move the hour hand forward
or backward in successive one-hour steps, without
affecting the minute and seconds displays.
When the hour hand passes midnight, the calendar
will automaticallydisplay a new date - eitherthe next
day or the previous day, depending on the direction
of correction. Hence there is a limit of +/- 1 day, so
as not to disrupt the perpetual calendar. Push the
crown back into position 1.
End of life (E.O.L.)
and end of energy (E.O.E.)
The watch indicates that the battery is reaching
its end of life via one of its hands jumping every
5 seconds. After approximately six months in this
mode, the watch will switch to E.O.E.mode: the
hands will stop at 12 o'clock. If the watch battery
is replaced in E.O.L. mode or within six months of
switching to E.O.E. mode, you will not need to adjust
the perpetual calendar. If however the battery is
replaced after this period, an approved watchmaker
will need to program the perpetual calendar.
