Full details

This Swiss-made Revue Thommen Diver GMT watch is designed for the modern man who values both style and functionality. Its key benefit lies in its robust construction and versatile features, including GMT functionality and high water resistance, making it ideal for travel and everyday wear.

FAQs

What is GMT functionality?

GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time. A GMT watch allows you to track a second time zone simultaneously with your local time, which is useful for international travel or communication.

How often do I need to wind my automatic watch?

If worn daily, the natural motion of your wrist should keep it wound. If not worn for more than a day or two, it's recommended to give it a manual wind before wearing.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

Yes, with a 300-meter water resistance rating, this watch is suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and even professional diving. Always ensure the crown is fully secured before water immersion.

Is the leather strap interchangeable?

Yes, the leather strap can be replaced with other compatible watch straps if desired. Consult a watchmaker for professional replacement.

How accurate is an automatic watch compared to a quartz watch?

Generally, automatic watches are less precise than quartz watches. A well-maintained automatic watch typically gains or loses a few seconds per day, whereas quartz watches are accurate to within seconds per month.

What does 'Swiss-made' mean for this watch?

'Swiss-made' is a protected designation indicating that the watch's movement is Swiss, the movement is inserted into the case in Switzerland, and the final inspection of the watch takes place in Switzerland.

How do I care for the stainless steel case?

The stainless steel case can be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a specialized jewelry polishing cloth can be used, but avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped and won't run.

Manually wind the watch by turning the crown clockwise 30-40 times. If it still doesn't run, it may require servicing.

Date is not changing correctly.

Ensure you are not attempting to change the date between 9 PM and 3 AM. Manually advance the time past midnight to see if the date corrects itself, then reset the time.

GMT hand is not synchronized with local time.

Pull the crown to the second position and adjust the main hour hand, then use the crown to set the GMT hand independently to your desired reference time.

Losing or gaining excessive time.

Minor variations are normal for automatic watches. If timekeeping deviates by more than 15-30 seconds per day, the watch may require regulation or servicing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent water resistance for diving and water sports.
  • GMT complication is highly useful for travelers and multi-time zone awareness.
  • Durable construction with sapphire crystal for longevity.
  • Stylish multicolor design suitable for various occasions.
  • Swiss-made automatic movement signifies quality and precision.

Cons

  • Automatic watches require regular winding or wear to maintain accuracy.
  • The leather strap may require replacement over time, especially with frequent water exposure.
  • Luminous material may fade over time and require 'recharging' under light.
  • As an automatic watch, it may be less precise than quartz models without regular maintenance.
  • Specific GMT functionality might be complex for users unfamiliar with the feature.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Winding: If the watch has stopped, gently wind the crown (located at the 3 o'clock position) clockwise about 30-40 times until you feel resistance. Avoid over-winding.
  2. Setting Time: Pull the crown out to the second position. Rotate to set the hour and minute hands. Push the crown back in.
  3. Setting Date: Pull the crown out to the first position. Rotate to set the date. *Note: Avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent mechanical stress.*
  4. Setting GMT Hand: Pull the crown out to the second position. Align the GMT hand to your desired reference time. The main hour hand can then be set independently.

Compatibility:

This is a standalone mechanical watch and does not interface with digital devices. Its compatibility is solely based on personal style and wrist size.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the case and crystal with a soft, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Clean the leather strap with a conditioner specifically designed for leather goods.
  • Water Resistance: After any exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it. Ensure the crown is screwed down (if applicable) or pushed in securely before water exposure.
  • Maintenance: It is recommended to have the automatic movement serviced every 3-5 years by a qualified watchmaker to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
