How To Read The Power Reserve Indicator - Seiko Presage SPB305 Instructions Manual

HOW TO READ THE POWER RESERVE INDICATOR

• The power reserve indicator lets you know the winding state of the mainspring.
• Before removing the watch from your wrist, observe the power reserve indica-
tor to check if the watch has enough power stored to keep running until the next
time you wear 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.)

* When the mainspring is fully wound, the crown can be turned further without
damaging the mainspring itself. The mainspring of the watch employs a slipping
mechanism to prevent the mainspring from over-winding.
* The orientation of "the power reserve indicator" may slightly vary depending on
the model.
