Xezo Air Commando Operating Manual

Operating manual for Air Commando automatic watch/ Calibers 2893-2, 2836-2, 2824-2, 2892A2

Thank you for choosing a timepiece from our Xezo collection.
The Xezo Air Commando Limited Edition 500 sports 2 crowns.
Crown (A) at 3 o’clock is used to adjust local time, 2

nd time zone

(movement caliber 2893-2) and date. This crown is screw-down locked crown.
Crown (B) at 10 o’clock operates the inner rotating bezel.

Your watch is fitted with Swiss-made ETA automatic movement (calibers 2893-2,
2892A2, 2836-2, and 2824-2). The inner mechanism of the watch has a free swinging
rotor that keeps the mainspring wound via the motion of your wrist. To achieve full
power reserve of the automatic movement, please remember to wind the watch initially

the movement will resume normal operation. A watch fitted with an automatic

by rotating the winding crown 40 times. After wearing the watch for 36 hours,

winding movement is rewound by the regular movements of your wrist.

Once fully wound, your watch will continue to keep time for approximately 42 hours
(calibers 2893-2 and 2892A2) after removing it from your wrist. Beyond this time, the
watch will stop. You will then need to rewind it manually by unlocking the crown (A), and
then turning the crown (A) clockwise (approximately 40 turns) to provide it with the
necessary power reserve. After that, your daily activity should wind the watch
sufficiently to keep it running at night when it is not being worn. You should wear your
watch everyday to ensure optimal rewinding.

Important note: To unlock the screw-down crown (A) turn it 4-5 times

counter-clockwise.

Note: As this is a mechanical watch, quartz watch accuracy cannot be expected.

We recommend self-adjustment exercise before setting the time and date.

Unlock the screw-down crown (A) by turning it 4-5 times counter-clockwise.
Pull out the crown (A) to Position “3” (two “clicks” out). The seconds hand is stopped.
Turn the crown clockwise and counter-clockwise, to let the hour hand and the minute
hand do "exercise" or "self-adjustment". For example set hour and minute hands at
6:30PM and then 5:30PM. Then, set hour and minute hands at 6:00PM.
You should notice that the GMT hand (24-hour red color hand for caliber 2893-2) now
points to one of the 24 "hour" markers on the dial.

Once you have performed self-adjustment exercise, return the screw-down crown (A) to
the locked position by pressing it against the case and turning it clockwise.
