TACHYMETER
[for models with tachymeter scale on the dial]
To measure the hourly average speed of a vehicle
Ex. 1
STOPWATCH
second
hand:
40 seconds
English
Tachymeter
scale: “90”
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x
1 (km or mile) = 90 km/h or mph
Tachymeter scale can be used only when the time required is less than 60 seconds.
Ex. 2: If the measuring distance is extended to 2 km or miles or shortened to 0.5 km
10
or miles and STOPWATCH second hand indicates “90” on tachymeter scale:
1 Use the stopwatch to determine
how many seconds it takes to
go 1 km or 1 mile.
▲
2 Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand
gives the average speed per
hour.
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 2 (km or mile) = 180 km/h or mph
“90” (tachymeter scale figure) x 0.5 (km or mile) = 45 km/h or mph
To measure the hourly rate of operation
Ex. 1
STOPWATCH
second
hand:
20 seconds
Tachymeter
scale: “180”
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x
1 job = 180 jobs/hour
Ex. 2: If 15 jobs are completed in 20 seconds:
“180” (tachymeter scale figure) x 15 jobs = 2700 jobs/hour
1 Use the stopwatch to measure
the time required to complete 1
job.
▲
2 Tachymeter scale indicated by
STOPWATCH second hand
gives the average number of
jobs accomplished per hour.

BATTERY CHANGE
Battery life : Approx. 2 years

●
●
●
English
● Battery life indicator
16
Battery : SEIKO SR927W
As the battery is inserted at the factory to check the function and performance of
the watch, its actual life once in your possession may be less than the specified
period.
When the battery expires, be sure to replace it as soon as possible to prevent any
malfunction.
We recommend that you contact an AUTHORIZED PULSAR DEALER for battery
replacement.
When the battery nears its end, the small second hand moves at two-second
intervals instead of normal one-second intervals to indicate that the battery needs
to be replaced with a new one.
* If the alarm is used while Second hand is moving at two-second intervals, the watch may
stop operating. Replace the battery as soon as possible.
WARNING
● Do not remove the battery from the watch.
● If it is necessary to take out the battery, keep it out of the reach of
children. If a child swallows it, consult a doctor immediately.
● Never short-circuit, tamper with or heat the battery, and never expose
it to fire. The battery may burst, become very hot or catch fire.
CAUTION
● The battery is not rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge it, as this
may cause battery leakage or damage to the battery.

• Before using in water, be sure the crowns are pushed in completely.
• Do not operate the crowns and buttons when the watch is wet or in
water. If used in sea water, rinse the watch in fresh water and dry it
completely.
• When taking a shower with the water resistant 5 bar watch, or
taking a bath with the water resistant 10, 15 or 20 bar watch, be
sure to observe the following:
* Do not operate the crowns or push the buttons when the watch
is wet with soapy water or shampoo.
* If the watch is left in warm water, a slight time loss or gain may
be caused. This condition, however, will be corrected when the
watch returns to normal temperature.
* Pressure in bar is a test pressure and should not be considered as corresponding
to actual diving depth since swimming movement tends to increase the pressure
at a given depth. Care should also be taken on diving into water.
** We recommend that you wear a PULSAR Diver’s Watch for scuba diving.
