RGMT DEMOLITION - Meca-Quartz Chronograph Watch Manual And Review

OVERVIEW

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE UNSCREWING THE CROWN:

SCREW-DOWN CROWN

Screw-down crowns are used to ensure water resistance. ALWAYS be certain that your crown is securely screwed down ( Position [0] is secured. Positions [1], [2] and [3] are not secured for water resistance ).

Do NOT unscrew your crown while you are in any environment where moisture is present.

CLOSED
Securely screwed + Water Resistance

OPENED
Not secured For Water Resistance

USING THE SCREW-DOWN CROWN

DO NOT PULL THE CROWN UNLESS IT IS UNSCREWED FIRST:

TO UNSCREW: Turn the crown anti-clockwise until it turns freely without tension. GENTLY pull the crown out to the other desired positions for watch setting (see specific operating instructions on the following pages).

TO SCREW: Push the crown ALL THE WAY IN (towards the watch) THEN begin to turn clockwise until it is securely screwed down.

NOTE: Failure to SECURELY screw down the crown after setting the watch may affect its water resistance.

HOW TO SET THE TIME

1. Pull the crown to position [2]-(2nd click).
2. Turn the crown clockwise to set the correct time.
3. Push the crown in.

* Take a.m./p.m. into consideration when setting the hour and minute hands to the desired time.

* When the crown is at the position [2], do not press any button, otherwise the chronograph hands will move.

HOW TO SET THE DATE

1. Pull the crown to position [1]-(1st click).
2. Turn the crown clockwise to set the correct date.
3. Push the crown in.

* Do not set the date between 9:00 P.M. and 3:00 A.M., otherwise the day may not change properly. If it is necessary to set the date during the time period, first change the time to any time outside it, set the date and then reset the correct time.

USING THE SCREW-DOWN PUSH BUTTON

This watch is equipped with screw-down push button. The push button will not be able to be pressed until the button are unscrewed.

To screw-down the button – turn the washer around the button clockwise until you encounter resistance.

To unscrew the button – turn the washer around the button anti-clockwise until it is at its maximum height away from the case.

You will only be able to operate the functions of the chronograph when the buttons are unscrewed.

• The watch is only water resistant as marked to its specified depth if the button has been screwed down
• Buttons must never be unscrewed or be operated underwater.

STOPWATCH FUNCTION

• The measurement of time is indicated by the stopwatch hands that move independently of the center hands and 24-hour hand.
• The stopwatch can measure up to 60 minutes.

STANDARD MEASUREMENT

ACCUMULATED ELAPSED TIME MEASUREMENT

Restart and stop of the stopwatch can be repeated by pressing the button A.

HELIUM VALVE USAGE

Your timepiece is equipped with a Helium Release Valve.

While this is a very specialized feature that is only used in certain conditions, the below instructions should be considered if you are using your watch in conditions where Helium maybe prevalent at underwater depths.

While Diving and use in Non-diving condition the Helium Valve should remain closed and tightly screwed in flush to the case (Fig 1)

(Fig 1)

If while diving the user is exposed to a prolonged period of exposure to pressurized Helium such as decompression chamber:

Please allow the Helium release valve to regulate internal pressure of the timepiece.

Simply unscrew the valve (Fig 2) until Helium exposure is complete.

(Fig 2)

Once complete, please close the valve again and also ensure that the screw down crown is also tightly secure for maximum protection and water resistance.

WATER RESISTANCE

Note that the water resistance chart serves only as a guide (please refer to the water resistance chart on the next page). Actual water resistance may vary depending on a number of factors including water temperature, water salinity, and use under water.

The water resistance of your timepiece may eventually be compromised over time with general wear and tear and use of your timepiece under adverse conditions.

Always remember to employ the screw down crown if available to maintain the water resistance of your timepiece. Warranty may be voided if the screw down crown has not been properly employed.

Note that you should never wear your watch in a jacuzzi, hot shower or steam room where steam may enter the case despite the water tight seals used to protect your watch. This may cause condensation inside your watch which may affect and damage the inner workings of your watch.

MECA-QUARTZ CHRONOGRAPH WATCH

This watch is powered by a Japanese made "MECA-QUARTZ" movement. It combines a battery regulated engine with a mechanical chronograph module. The result is a watch which delivers the meticulous pinpoint precision of a quartz movement along with the crisp, flyback handfeel and visual charm of mechanical watches.
