Setting instructions: Models with date
If packaging clip is on the crown (setting knob), please remove. Note: Crown may already be in the out position or unscrewed. Step 1: Turn crown counter clock-wise to unscrew crown (fig. 1).
The crown is completely unscrewed when it turns freely.
Step 2: Gently and carefully pull crown halfway out, you will feel a “click”, there
will be a bit of feel here (fig. 2).
Step 3: Turn crown either clock-wise or counter clock-wise (depending on the
model) to advance the date, continue to advance the date to yesterday’s date (fig. 3).
Step 4: Carefully pull the crown out a bit further for a second “click”. Turn the
crown clock-wise to cycle the time past midnight, you will see the date advance to today’s date. Continue to advance to set the desired time, this will ensure the AM/PM is correct (fig. 4).
Step 5: Push crown in to re-start second hand (fig. 5). Step 6: Push in and turn crown clock-wise to engage threads. Continue to turn
clockwise to firmly screw/rethread down crown. Do not overtighten (fig. 5).

Care for your Bertucci™watch:Water resistance:
1 Never wear the watch unless the crown (setting knob) is completely screwed/
rethreaded down. Do not overtighten crown.
2 We recommend rinsing your watch and band with fresh water after exposure to salt
water, chlorinated water, chemicals or soil loads.
3 Never adjust crown (setting knob) when watch is wet or submerged in water. 4 Keep watch clean and free of debris, especially around the crown area.
Use dish detergent & warm water with a soft brush to clean, keep crown (setting knob) screwed down when cleaning.
5 If leather band is submerged in water for an extended time period, allow it to air dry. 6 Replace band if excessively worn (see page 12). 7 If watch has stopped bring it to a local jeweler or a professional watch service shop
for battery replacement/ check (see page 20).
8 Do not expose your watch to intense magnetic fields such as loudspeakers and
other electromagnetic devices.
9 When setting your watch, handle the crown (setting knob) gently as this is a
precision device.
10 Do not subject your watch to severe impact, avoid dropping.
Your Bertucci™watch has been carefully designed and tested to be used in water. The case material, screw down crown, and case back are premium features to improve water resistance performance. Bertucci
™
watches are engineered to withstand water pressure to 160 P.S.I.A (equals immersion to 100 meters or 328 feet below sea level) if crown (setting knob) is screwed down.
1 Never adjust crown (setting knob) when watch is wet or submerged in water. 2 Never wear the watch unless the crown (setting knob) is completely screwed
down. Don’t forget to tighten crown (setting knob) down after setting time as water will leak and damage movement.
3 The watch is water resistant only as long as crystal, crown and case
are intact and undamaged.
4 Your Bertucci
™
watch has been designed to be worn during activities in which the watch will be exposed to water and submersion in water. However, the watch is not a professional diver watch and should not be used for diving.
5 Do not operate push buttons (if equipped with) when watch submerged
in water.

Care for your Bertucci™watch (cont.):
Most important: Keep crown (setting knob) screwed or rethreaded down.
Your watch is equipped with a screw down crown (setting knob). This premium feature is the best design in order to maximize water-resistance and durability to ensure protection of the watch movement.
Please note: After setting the time and/or date, it is critical that the crown is tightened down by pushing in and gently turning clock-wise (to the
right) simultaneously in order rethread crown down.
Failure to do so will cause the watch's internals to be flooded with water and voiding warranty.
Following this simple practice will extend the watch life dramatically.
