Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

Ensure the watch has been wound sufficiently. Shake it gently for a minute or two or wind the crown manually. If it continues to stop, it may require servicing.

Inaccurate timekeeping

Automatic watches can have a slight daily variation. If the inaccuracy is significant (more than +/- 10-15 seconds per day), it may need to be regulated by a watchmaker. Avoid exposure to strong magnetic fields.

Strap is discolored or stiff

The leather strap requires care. Use a dedicated leather conditioner to keep it supple. Avoid prolonged exposure to water or direct sunlight, which can damage the leather.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are not trying to set the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. Set the date when the time is between 3 AM and 9 PM.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is an automatic watch, meaning it is powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist. To start the watch if it has stopped, gently shake it for a minute or two. You can also manually wind it by turning the crown (located at the 3 o'clock position) clockwise approximately 40 times while it is in the closed position. The crown is usually a screw-down type; pull it out to set the time and date.

Compatibility:

This watch is designed as a standalone timepiece. The brown leather strap can be replaced with other 21mm leather, rubber, or metal straps for a customized look.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. The leather strap should be cleaned with a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent drying and cracking.
  • Winding: If the watch is not worn daily, wind it manually periodically to maintain the power reserve and ensure optimal performance.
  • Water Resistance: Regularly check the crown and case back are securely fastened. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures or strong magnetic fields, which can affect accuracy.
