USE
Winding
Crown in position I, not pulled out
Your model has a manual winding movement. If, after having
fully wound the watch, you do not wear it for longer than
60 hours, it will stop.You must rewind it by hand to get
it moving again.To do this, turn the crown in a clockwise
direction. The balance will begin to move after a few
turns. Now turn the crown again carefully until the power
reserve display is in the 60 position.
It is not possible to overtension the mainspring.
For daily use, we recommend that you wind the watch in
the morning before you put it on.The movement spring
then has enough power reserve to keep your watch
running smoothly until the next day and beyond.
Notes
The accuracy may be inuenced by the wearing conditions.
There is no stop of the crown at full winding.
Setting the time
Crown in position III, pulled out
Pull the crown out to position III carefully; the seconds
hand (3) will stop.Turn the crown forwards or backwards1
to the desired time, and then push it back into the rest
position I.
Once the hour hand passes the 12 o’clock position, you
can see if it is indicating midnight (date will change) or
midday (date will not change).
1Important: In order to avoid damaging the movement,
the crown for calibre 2896 (Big Date) must only be
turned clockwise.
Advice on how to synchronise your watch
To synchronise the seconds hand (3) with an ofcial time
signal (radio/TV/Internet), pull the crown out to position III;
the seconds hand will stop. At the signal, push the crown
back into the rest position I.
Rapid date correction
Crown in position II, intermediate
Pull the crown out to position II, turn it backwards until
it displays the desired date, and then push it back into
the rest position I. During this operation, your watch will
continue running, so the time will not need to be re-set.
You will need to re-set the date manually after months with
less than 31 days.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
We would advise you to clean your watch regularly (except
for the leather strap) using a soft cloth and lukewarm
soapy water.After immersion in salt water, rinse the watch
in fresh water and leave it to dry completely.
Ensure that you do not leave it in places subject to great
temperature and humidity variations, in intense sunlight or
near strong magnetic elds.
We recommend you have your watch inspected every
3 to 4 years by your approved dealer or agent. For an
irreproachable maintenance service and to ensure the
warranty remains valid, always approach an approved
dealer or agent.
Water resistance precautions
Your watch is water resistant but, following a shock, it
may lose its water resistance without you realising. Water
resistance must be checked up during its scheduled
inspection.
Important: In the event of failure of your watch, entrust
it only to an approved dealer or agent (see the
warranty).
