■ HOW TO WIND THE MAINSPRING
This watch is a self-winding watch equipped with a manual winding mechanism. When the
watch is worn on the wrist, the motion of the wearer's arm winds the mainspring of the watch.
When first using a stopped watch, it is recommended that you manually wind the mainspring
by turning the crown.
● Guide for winding state of the mainspring
Self-winding: The mainspring of the watch is designed to be fully wound when it
56
is worn for twelve hours per day for three to five consecutive days.
Manual winding: Five full rotations of the crown will provide the power to run
the watch for approximately ten hours.
Observe the power reserve indicator to check the level of the remaining power.
Refer to "POWER RESERVE INDICATOR" on page 58.
※ The watch employs a device to prevent overwinding of the mainspring. Once the mainspring is fully wound,
the mainspring slips inside, disengaging the winding mechanism. When this happens, you can still turn the
crown without damaging the watch, however, please refrain from excessive operation of the mainspring.
※ Under a low-temperature condition （below 0℃）, always keep at least one-sixth of the watch power shown
by the power reserve indicator.
■ POWER RESERVE INDICATOR
The power reserve indicator lets you know the winding state of the main-
spring （remaining amount of power） .
Before removing the watch from your wrist,
observe the power reserve indicator to
check if the watch has stored enough power
to keep running until the next time you wear
58
it. If necessary, wind the mainspring. （To
prevent the watch from stopping, wind the
mainspring to store the excess power that
will allow the watch to run for extra time.）
※ The continuous operable time of the watch may vary depending on actual use conditions, such as
the number of hours you wear the watch or the extent of your movement while wearing it.
※ In a case where you wear the watch for a short period of time each day, observe the power reserve
indicator to check the level of the remaining power. If necessary, manually wind the mainspring.
■ HOW TO SET THE DATE AND TIME
１． Make sure that the mainspring is suffi-
ciently wound and the watch is working.
