CHARACTERISTICS OF A MECHANICAL
WATCH
(self-winding type, automatic winding type)
●This mechanical watch operates using power obtained from a mainspring.
●If the watch is completely stopped, manually turn the crown approximately 20
times to wind up the mainspring to start the watch.
●While loss/gain of a quartz watch is indicated by a monthly or annual rate, ac-
curacy of a mechanical watch is normally indicated by a daily rate (loss/gain per
day).
● Normal usage accuracy of a mechanical watch varies according to conditions of
use (time period that the watch is worn on the wrist, temperature environment,
hand movement, and winding state of the mainspring).
● When the watch is affected by strong magnetism, it temporarily gains or loses
time. If the watch encounters a strong magnetic field, the parts of the watch may
be magnetized. In this case, repairs such as removal of magnetism are required.
Contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.

To set the watch
The crown of your watch is
*the screw lock type.
Unscrew.
Screw up.
* If your watch has a screw-lock crown, the crown will screw into the watch case
for added protection.
• After completing all settings of the watch, screw the crown in again by turn-
ing it clockwise while pressing it.
• If the crown turns out to be too stiff to be screwed in, turn the crown coun-
terclockwise once and then give another try.
• Do not screw it in by force as it may damage the slots of the crown.

1. Slowly turn the crown clockwise (in the
12 o’clock direction) to wind the main-
spring.
* Turning the crown counterclockwise (the
6 o’clock direction) does not wind the
mainspring.
HOW TO USE
This watch is an automatic watch equipped with a manual winding mechanism.
• When the watch is worn on the wrist, the motion of the wearer's arm winds the
mainspring of the watch.
• If your watch is completely stopped, it is recommended that you manually wind
the mainspring by turning the crown.
●How to manually wind the mainspring by turning the crown
2. Continue to turn the crown until the main-
spring is sufficiently wound. The second
hand will start moving.
3. Set the time and date before putting the
watch on your wrist.

* There is no need to turn the crown further when the mainspring is fully wound. But
the crown can be turned without damaging the watch mechanism.
* Once the watch is wound up fully, it operates for about 45 hours.
* If the watch is used without being wound up fully, gain or loss of the watch may
result. To avoid this, wear the watch for more than 10 hours a day. If the watch is
used without wearing on the wrist (if it is used on the desk like a clock, for exam-
ple), be sure to wind it up fully every day at a fixed time.
* If the watch has stopped with the mainspring unwound, winding the mainspring
with the crown will not start the watch immediately. This is because the main-
spring torque (force) is low at the beginning of its winding due to the characteristics
of mechanical watches. The second hand starts to move when a certain degree
of strong torque is reached after the mainspring has been wound up. However,
swinging the watch from side to side to forcibly turn the balance can start the
watch sooner.

• Check that the watch is operating, and then set the time and date.
• The watch is provided with a date function and is so designed that the date
changes once every 24 hours. The date changes around 12 o’clock midnight. If
AM/PM is not properly set, the date will change around 12 o’clock noon.
1. Pull out the crown to the first click. (The second hand continues moving and the
accuracy of the watch is unimpaired.)
2. The date can be set by turning the crown counterclock-
wise. Turn it until the previous day’s date appears.
Ex.) If today is the 6th of the month, first set the date to
”5” by turning the crown counterclockwise.
HOW TO SET THE TIME AND DATE
CAUTION
• Do not set the date between 8:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. If you do so, the
date may not change properly on the following day or malfunction of the
watch may occur.
