Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting Up

  1. Winding: To wind the watch, unscrew the crown and wind it clockwise. A full wind provides approximately 50 hours of power reserve.
  2. Setting the Time: Pull the crown out to the final position and rotate to set the time. Push the crown back in and screw it down to secure it.
  3. Using the Chronograph: Press the top pusher to start, stop, and then reset the chronograph.

Compatibility

This watch is compatible with any standard watch strap with the appropriate lug width should you wish to change the strap. It is also compatible with a variety of watch winders, although not strictly necessary due to its manual-winding nature.

Care

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the case and crystal with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Leather Strap Care: Avoid exposing the leather strap to water or harsh chemicals. Clean it with a specialized leather cleaner when necessary.
  • Servicing: Have the watch serviced every 5-7 years by a certified watchmaker to maintain accuracy and reliability.
