HOW TO USE AUTOMATIC MECHANICAL WATCH

• This is an automatic mechanical watch with manual winding mechanism.

• If the watch is worn on the wrist, the mainspring will be wound

automatically through normal wrist movement. It can also be wound up by
turning the crown.

• To start the watch after it stops completely, wind it up either by turning the

crown or swinging it from side to side until the second hand starts moving.
Then, set the time and date before wearing the watch on the wrist.

• To wind up the watch by turning the crown, turn it clockwise slowly. The

watch cannot be wound by turning the crown counterclockwise. After the
watch is wound up fully, turning the crown further will not break the spring.

• Once the watch is wound up fully, it operates more than 50 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 8 hours a day. If the
watch is used without wearing on the wrist; if it is used on the desk, for
example: be sure to wind it up fully every day at a fixed time.
