OWNER’S MANUAL
GEMINI

GENERAL CARE INSTRUCTIONS
* Always have the crown fully secured
before submerging into water.
* Do not attempt to open caseback
without prior approval from Lorier, as
this will void your warranty.
* Scratches on the crystal can be buffed
out using a soft cloth and a polishing
compound such as Polywatch (not
included). In a pinch, toothpaste will do
as well.
* Scratches on the brushed surfaces of
the case can be removed with a green
3M Scotchbrite pad (not included).
Brush gently in one direction until the
scratch is removed.
* Scratches on the polished surfaces of
the case can be removed with a Cape
Cod cloth (not included). Use caution
NOT to make contact with brushed
surfaces.
* Thoroughly rinse in fresh water after
submerging in salt water.
QUICK FAQs
Can I leave the chronograph function
continuously running?
Doing so will cause premature wear and
tear. We recommend using the chrono-
graph function only when necessary.
Can I use the chronograph to time physical
activities?
It is NOT advisable to use the chrono-
graph function while the wearer is in
motion. Mechanical chronographs were
designed to be used while in stationary
positions: e.g. in the cockpit of an auto-
mobile, aircraft or spacecraft, or on the
sideline
of a track.
Can I swim with this watch?
Your Gemini is tested for water resistance
up to 50m/165ft. HOWEVER, while
submerged, the pushers/buttons must
NOT be touched, and the crown must stay
pushed in. Seals and gaskets must also be
checked every 5 years and replaced as
necessary.
IMPORTANT
Please read this manual thoroughly
before using.
Your warranty does NOT cover
damage due to misuse.

RESIZING/CHANGING THE BRACELET
MICROADJUSTMENT
Use the round end of
the strap changing tool
(not included) to push
in the clasp springbar,
then move the spring-
bar into the desired slot.
Make sure it is in the
same slot on both sides
of the clasp.
SIZING WITH LINKS
Use the screwdriver to
remove and replace links as

For a secure fit, we highly
recommend applying
low-strength threadlocker,
such as Loctite 222/222MS

and replace the springbar.
One side at a time, insert the
round end into the lug holes
and gently pull the bracelet
so that both ends are out.
Place the springbar back
into the holes for use with
another strap.
PLEASE USE CAUTION
