PERPETUAL MOON Thank you for choosing Arnold & Son, we are proud to have you as Owner of the Perpetual Moon. Arnold & Son has an ancient, long-standing relationship with the phases of the moon.

Winding The movement can be wound by turning the crown “A” when it is in its winding position 1. We suggest that you wind your watch every 90 hours at the latest to provide it with the power it requires to operate for the next 90 hours.

Setting Time To set the time (hour and minute hands), pull the crown “A” to position 2 and turn it in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. Note: do not forget to push the crown “A” back to its winding position 1 when you have set it, to guarantee the water-resistance of your watch.

II. Technical characteristics Movement Equipped with the A&S1512 hand-winding calibre, your watch indicates hours, minutes and astronomical moon phases. Decorated in accordance with the codes of Swiss high- quality watchmaking, the movement is rhodium-plated and finely decorated. With a fine control system, your movement has been set by one of our watchmakers in 5 positions to make it operate with optimum accuracy.
Water-resistance Your watch is guaranteed to be water-resistant to 3 ATM. This means that it has been verified at a pressure equivalent to immersion at 30 metres. It has been designed to be water-resistant for swimming only and should not be used for deep-sea diving, diving or sports that have a high risk of major shocks, such as windsurfing or water-skiing.
III. Maintenance Your watch has a mechanical movement which requires cares and adequate maintenance. It should be kept from violent shocks. The movement in your watch must be serviced at regular intervals because oils change viscosity over time, and this impedes its smooth operation and speeds up wear and tear.
