● Tips for more accurate time setting
Keep in mind the following points in order to set the time more accurately.
・ Before setting the time, wind the mainspring sufficiently.
  (Ensure that the power reserve indicator is showing a full-wound state.)
・ When starting to use a stopped watch, wind the mainspring sufficiently.
To set the time after that, wait for approximately 30 seconds after the

second hand starts to move, then pull the crown out to the second click.
・ The second hand will stop moving while the crown is at the second click
position. Try not to stop the second hand movement for longer than 30
minutes. If it is necessary to remain holding the crown at the second
click position for longer than 30 minutes, push the crown back in once,
and wait for at least 30 seconds after the second hand restarts moving,
and then pull out the crown to the second click again to resume time
setting.

To clean the clearances (around the metallic band, crown, case back or rotating
bezel) , a soft toothbrush is convenient.
・ After soaking the watch in seawater, be sure to wash the watch in clean pure water
and wipe it dry carefully.
