When fully wound, the watch has a 48h power-reserve. The two barrels of the Mirrored Force Resonance model are fitted with a slip-spring, which is not locked when the movement is fully wound. Some thirty turns are needed to wind the watch fully.
SETTING THE TIME Pull the crown out one click. To ensure correct setting of the time, first rotate the minute hand 5 minutes ahead of the desired time, then go back (by rotating counterclockwise) to the desired time.

Rapid pressure on the pushpiece at two o’clock enables the seconds to be re- initialised and synchronized with a time signal. Do not press the pushpiece for too long. Avoid pressing repeatedly the pushpiece. IMPORTANT: do not operate the crown or press a button underwater or when the watch is wet.

WATER RESISTANCE Your Armin Strom watch is water resistant to 50m. The water resistance of a watch can be compromised by external factors (such as shocks, perspiration, cosmetics or salt water) or by the natural aging process of the gaskets. That is why water resistance cannot be permanently guaranteed, and the gaskets must be periodically replaced.
