Marloe Watch Company
Thank you for choosing the Lomond Chronoscope
by Marloe Watch Company.
The Lomond is a continuation of our exploration
into manual wind timepieces. The ST1901 manual
mechanical movement, with its 40hr power
reserve, has heritage that traces back to the 1940’s
and brings with it a robustness, accuracy and
beauty that is rare to find in today’s mechanical
movement world.
A bezel diameter of 43mm gives the Lomond
presence, with a unique take on case design.
The Lomond tapers from 43mm to 36mm at
the case back, aording not just an exceptionally
comfortable feel on the wrist, but a visibly
slimmer, sleeker watch. The box acrylic crystal
brings a classic aesthetic with a generous
signature crown with which to inject the vital
lifeblood into the tiny mechanical heart.
Everything about the Lomond is tailored to the
senses, from the dynamic double layer dial to the
ceramic bezel; from the sapphire exhibition case-
back to the quick release strap. We designed the
Lomond to punch well above its weight, and we
think it does just that.
We hope you enjoy your Lomond Chronoscope.
To the future, and whatever it may hold.

Winding your Lomond
Inside your Lomond timepiece is a manual, hand-
winding, mechanical movement. Each movement
is powered by your touch, each turn of the crown
fuelling your Lomond.
Winding your Lomond every day keeps it ticking.
The necessity to wind your watch may at first be
unfamiliar, but soon enough you will find winding
your watch in the morning before you head out to
the hustle and bustle, or at night just before you
get that well earned shut eye, becomes part of
your daily routine.
Wind confidently until you feel the crown
bouncing back in your fingers. Once this starts
happening take it slower until you feel a firmer
resistance and then stop. This feeling of resistance
is the Mainspring within your Lomond coiling up
tighter and tighter. Try not to wind so much that
the crown comes to a hard stop - this will damage
your watch over time if repeatedly wound to this
hard stop point.
This full charge will keep your Lomond ticking for
over 40 hours. Quite amazing considering it’s all
down to a tiny spring uncoiling itself slowly.
Wind your Lomond in a CLOCKWISE direction. The
Marloe “M” engraving should be as above, right way up.
Don’t worry - winding the crown in the opposite
direction won’t damage the movement, and it will sound
prey similar to actually winding it, but the only way to
charge your Lomond is to wind it clockwise.
Seing the Time
50M / 5ATM
50M / 5ATM
Position A
This is when the crown is fully in, hard against the
case. This is the position for winding your Lomond.
Turn the crown CLOCKWISE to wind your
Lomond - around 35-40 turns will fully charge
your Lomond.
Position B
Pulling the crown out from the case will
engage the time-seing mechanism within the
movement. It might take a lile firm pull to lever
the crown away from the case, but try not to
pull too hard. The crown won’t come o but it’s a
threaded part and will give way if forced.
Once the crown is in position B you can set the
time by turning the crown either clockwise or anti-
clockwise. Once the time is set push the crown
back towards the case firmly - you will feel a nice
click indicating the stem (the threaded part the
crown is aached to) has disengaged from the
time-seing mechanism and is now engaged back
in the winding mechanism.

Using the Chronoscope
Start / Stop
Pushing this buon starts the Chronoscope timing
mechanism. You can read the elapsed time using
this central seconds hand - once it reaches 60
seconds you’ll see the right-hand sub-dial tick
over to 1 minute and the central seconds will
continue to count another minute. The Lomond
Chronoscope has a total of 30 minutes total
timing duration. To stop the timer, push this
buon again. This will stop the timing at the
current point, and will remain this way until you
push this buon again to restart the timer, or if
you push the Reset buon.
Reset
Pushing this buon resets the Chronoscope
timing mechanism to Zero, but only if the
Chronoscope timing mechanism is currently
stopped. If the central seconds hand is still
sweeping around the dial, pushing this buon will
do nothing, and will not damage the movement at
all. Make sure the timer is stopped before pushing
this buon to reset.

Caring for your Lomond
Maintenance
Warranty
Your Lomond is made to be worn every single day.
However your Lomond isn’t designed to be worn in
challenging environments such as rock-climbing
or hard swimming - in fact it’s best to keep your
Lomond away from any form of water. Splashes
are OK from hand washing, but dunk in water and
you will risk damaging it.
To keep everything clean use a new microfibre
cloth and gently polish away any fingerprints and
dirt. Do not use any abrasive or chemical cleaning
products on the case. The acrylic crystal can be
bued to remove any light scratches using Poly-
watch or similar - a Cape Cod cloth will do the
same for the polished case finishes - don’t use
any form of polishing compound on the Bead-
Blasted case as this will damage the case finish.
A mechanical movement, like a car engine, uses
oils to lubricate all the moving parts. Over time
this fine grade of oil can become gloopy, causing
your movement to begin losing accuracy and
generally bogging things down. Every 4-5 years
think about having your watch cleaned and
re-oiled by any professional watch service and
repair shop - it’ll keep everything ticking nicely.
Marloe Watch Co. oers a 1-year limited warranty
on all watches which covers manufacturing
defects. The warranty does not cover damages
that may occur from normal wear and tear and
everyday use.
If you have a warranty claim please contact us.
