Thank you for your purchase. This quartz
watch has been carefully designed to give
you years of reliable service. Its design
incorporates
the
latest
watchmaking
technology. Please let us know if you have
any comments or suggestions as to how we
might improve our products.
USING THE SCREW CROWN (C)
Your watch is equipped with a screw-down,
locking crown "C". This screws into the
case, to ensure a reliable waterproof seal.
To set your watch, you must first unscrew
the crown by turning it counter-clockwise
3-4 turns, then pull out gently from the
case for setting. After setting or resetting
the watch always ensure that you screw
the crown back into the case by pressing
it firmly into the case; then, applying a
gentle pressure against the case, turn
the crown clockwise 3-4 turns until snug.
Always ensure that it turns smoothly and
is not cross-threaded. Do not over tighten!
(Finger-tight will ensure a good water-proof
seal.) If damage occurs due to a failure to
screw in the crown correctly, this cannot be
covered under warranty.
SETTING THE TIME, DAY & DATE
To set the watch, first unscrew the crown to
the neutral position (1). Now, pull the crown
out all the way to the TIME Setting position
(3). Turn the hands forward until the date in
the date window changes - this is midnight.
Continue to turn the hands forward until
the correct time is displayed.
(NOTE: If
setting the watch in the afternoon, you
must turn the hands forward at least 12
hours, otherwise, the date will change at
noon, not midnight.)
To set the date, push the crown in one stop
to position 2. Turn counter-clockwise until
today's date shows in the date window.

Turn clockwise a few turns to set the day. It
is recommended not to set the day (or date)
after 9PM or before 5AM, as this could result
in the day (or date) not changing correctly.
Most day disks are bilingual: to change the
day to the other language, simply turn the
day forward one "click" after 9PM or before
5AM. Finally, always remember to press in
the crown and screw it firmly into the case
after setting.
The "eye" with the silver hand at the
bottom of the main dial is the constant
second hand. This is not connected to the
stopwatch, but shows you that the watch is
working and gives you normal seconds for
the time of day. This hand will stop when
the crown is pulled out to position 3.
USING THE ROTATING BEZEL
Your watch is equipped with a rotating
bezel. This is the ring around the outside
of the watch face, which gives you a simple
and legible way to track bottom-time on a
dive, or any elapsed time. Simply turn the
bezel so that the arrow marker is opposite
the minute hand. The minute hand will
move forward. You can then read the time
elapsed since you set the bezel, by looking
where the minute hand points on the bezel.
While the intended use of this is for diving,
it can also be useful reminder for everyday
timing. (e.g. remembering elapsed time
on a parking meter!) Also note that, for
safety reasons, the bezel rotates counter-
clockwise only! If you set the bezel for a
dive, then knock it accidentally, this will
only show a greater than actual bottom
time, so you will never underestimate your
bottom time.
USING THE CHRONOGRAPH
TO START TIMING: press the START/STOP
pushbutton (A). Timing will start, and the

stopwatch second hand (the large hand in
the centre of the dial) will start sweeping
round the face in 1 second steps. After 1
minute has elapsed, the small "eye" at the
top of the main dial will show 1 minute, and
continue to record elapsed minutes, as long
as the stopwatch is running. The small "eye"
at 9 o'clock will record elapsed hours.
TO STOP TIMING: Press the START/STOP
pushbutton (A) again; the timing will stop.
The timing range is 12 hours, with automatic
rollover, for timing longer events.
TO RESET: Stop the stopwatch, then press
firmly on the RESET pushbutton (B). The
large centre second hand, minute recorder
and hour recorder will all reset.
RE-ZEROING THE CHRONOGRAPH
If the watch is knocked, it is possible for the
second hand (the large hand in the centre)
to become misaligned: this will prevent
the stopwatch from zeroing correctly. To
re-align the hands, pull out the crown to
position 3, then press button A repeatedly,
until the large second hand points to 12
o'clock. Finally, press the crown firmly into
the case and screw it in. Press START (A)
then STOP (A) then RESET (B) to check that
it is zeroing correctly.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT BAND
A selection of alternate bands are available
to fit your watch: these may include natural
rubber, polyurethane, various styles of
high quality leather bands, or a matching
metal bracelet. If you would like to order
an alternate band for your watch, please
contact your dealer, or our Service Centre,
or visit
www.momentumwatch.com
CRYSTAL
Most of our watches are fitted with a heat-
tempered mineral crystal. Please note that
while this glass is heat-hardened, an impact
with a hard or sharp object can scratch
the crystal, or crack or shatter it. If this
happens, return the watch to one of our
Service Centers, where the crystal can be
replaced for a moderate charge. (Scratches
and impact damage are not covered
under warranty.) A virtually scratchproof
sapphire crystal is standard on all S-Series
models and is available at extra cost for
many other models. Please check with our
Service Department.
TEMPERATURE CARE
Avoid temperature extremes. Exposing your
watch to high temperatures, such as placing
it on the dashboard of a vehicle or use in
a jacuzzi or hot tub may cause the watch
to malfunction, shorten battery life, or
cause deformations of certain components
leading to mechanical failures. Leaving the
watch in extreme cold temperatures may
cause irregular time keeping until the watch
returns to normal operating temperatures.
For these reasons, you should remove your
watch prior to exposure.
TWO YEAR WARRANTY
Great care has been taken to ensure that
Your watch is equipped
ATTENTION:
with a screw-down crown system for
maximum water-resistance. Please refer
to your warranty / manual for important
