Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup:
- Unpack the watch from its Ravel presentation box.
- Pull out the crown (the small knob on the side) to its first position to set the date. Rotate it until the desired date appears in the window. Ensure you do this when the time is between 3 AM and 9 AM to avoid interfering with the automatic date change mechanism. If the date changes at the wrong time, set the time to 12:00 and then proceed.
- Pull the crown out to its second position to set the time. Move the hands to the correct time, then push the crown back in fully.
Compatibility:
This is a mechanical accessory and does not have electronic compatibility requirements.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the case and crystal regularly. For stubborn smudges, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the watch is not exposed to excessive moisture. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Battery: The quartz movement is powered by a small battery. When the timekeeping becomes erratic or stops, the battery will need replacing by a qualified watch technician.
- Storage: Store the watch in its presentation box when not in use to protect it from dust and scratches.
