Technical refinements of the Aquatimer Split Minute Chronograph Your IWC watch shows you the time in hours, minutes and seconds as well as the date. With the integral chronograph, you can measure any period up to 12 hours in seconds, minutes and hours. The duration of a dive can be read on the bezel inside the case, which can be adjusted in an anti- clockwise direction by turning the reset button.

Functions of the crown X Normal position (screwed in) 0 Winding position 1 Date setting 2 Time setting Normal position This watch has a screw-in crown. The screw-in connection (normal position, position X) prevents unintentional adjustment of the time or the date, and the watch case has double protection against penetrating water.

6 | 7 Setting the date If a month has fewer than 31 days, you must set the date by hand to the first day of the following month. To do this, release the screw-in crown and pull it to position 1. You can now change the date by rotating the crown to the right (quick setting).

8 | 9 Marking the start of a dive Rotation of the reset button in a clockwise direction causes the bezel to rotate in the case, enabling the triangle on the bezel to be aligned with the minute hand. The desired point in time (e.g. the time of entering the water at the start of the dive) can be set in this way.

Split Minute function – On (I) Setting the rocker switch to position (I) engages the Split Minute function and causes the Split Minute hand to stop, while the minute hand continues to run. You can read the duration since activation as the difference between the two hands.

To ensure that your watch continues to function perfectly, you should have it checked by an IWC service centre at least once a year. Your watch should also be tested after exposure to unusually harsh conditions. If the tests are not carried out as stipulated, or if the watch is opened by unauthorised persons, IWC will accept no warranty or liability claims.
Page 14
For this reason, we recommend that you have your watch serviced approximately every five years. Please contact an authorized IWC Official Agent or send your watch directly to the IWC Customer Service Department in Schaffhausen.

12 | 13 Adjusting the metal bracelet If you have decided on a metal bracelet, you can easily adjust it to the size of your wrist. You can make this adjustment yourself by removing or adding individual bracelet links. Taking the bracelet apart and removing individual links Open the push-button release safety clasp by pressing the button on the side.
Page 16
Determining bracelet length Place the watch with the bracelet open around your wrist and estimate the number of surplus bracelet links that you can now remove from the bracelet (as described above). If you need to shorten the bracelet by several links, you should remove the same number of links from each half of the bracelet, if possible, to ensure that the clasp can be worn more or less at the centre of the wrist.

14 | 15 Attaching the bracelet Attach the component parts of the bracelet link to the connection point, and push the pivot pin into the bracelet from the side (1). Using the special tool provided, now press the securing pin downwards (2) and, at the same time, slide the pivot pin back into the bracelet until it lies flush (3).
