HOW DO I
SET MY WATCH?
Please read
before setting your watch
Winding your watch:
For most
watches you must first unscrew the crown counter
clockwise. The stem will spring out by itself.
Rotate the crown clockwise about 20-30
revolutions. This will give the watch an initial
pre charge. If you do not wear the watch on a
daily basis you will need to charge your watch
as it will de-wind as it sits. While wearing the
watch the kinetic movement maintains the watches
power and keeps the time and charge. You will
never need to replace a battery as the watch is
fully mechanical. We do recommend that you have
your watch serviced once a year, as all
automatic Replica require. Any watch repair shop
should be able to do this for your. Our
automatic Replica come with a Japanese Miyoca
movement. One of the highest quality Japanese
movements in today's market.
Setting
the date and time:
Unscrew the
crown so it releases. Pull the crown out one
detent and rotate the crown counter clockwise to
scroll through the days. If today is the 15th
you want to initially set the date to the 14th.
Next gently pull the crown out to the next
detent. Rotate the hands counter clockwise until
the date flips to the 15th. Now you know that it
is the 15th AM. If you are setting the time to
6:00 P.M rotate the hands one more revolution
and then to 6:00 PM. For chronograph date
indicator press the side button to achieve the
same results. See more
detail.
Winding your watch:
For metal
bands we recommend that you take the watch to a
watch repair shop. They should be able to size
the watch for you for about $5.00. Leather band
watches are sized differently depending on the
security clasp. Unscrew pin, pull it out, uncrew
next pin and pull it out. Seperate the link and
screw back together. If you have any questions
please email us and we will walk you through it. |

Care of
your New Watch:
Like any
other fine quality watch, water does damage.
Avoid submerging your watch or wearing it in the
shower. Although your watch is manufactured with
proper O-rings and gaskets. Water may still make
it's way into the casing, usually, due to crowns
not fully seated. All automatic watches require
servicing sooner or later. A good tune up will
ensure a long lasting watch. Quartz battery
operated watches typically need a new battery
every two to three years. ( to save battery life
make sure the chronograph stop watch is not
running when not in use) Any watch repair shop
should be able to service your
watch.

| Setting
time |
| After setting
your watch you must Physically wear the watch
24-48hr so the watch has time to wind itself up
and keep time
properly. |
| You have
just received your new watch. Odds are that it
currently isn't running. There are no batteries
in it at all. It stores energy inside it as you
wear it and move around, we recommend wearing
the watch for a full few days to really get it
going. |
