FAQs

How do I set the time and date?

Pull the crown out to position 2 (the middle position) to set the time. Pull it out further to position 3 to set the date. Always ensure you are setting the date correctly by advancing the time past midnight. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM.

How accurate is the 4R35 automatic movement?

The Seiko 4R35 movement is generally accurate within -20 to +40 seconds per day. Accuracy can be influenced by factors such as wearing habits, temperature, and the watch's position when not worn.

How long does the power reserve last?

The Seiko 4R35 movement has a power reserve of approximately 41 hours when fully wound.

Is this watch suitable for swimming?

With 50m water resistance, this watch is protected against accidental splashes and light rain. It is not suitable for swimming, diving, or prolonged submersion in water.

Can I change the watch strap?

Yes, the watch has a standard 20mm lug width, allowing for easy replacement with most aftermarket watch straps made of leather, nylon, or rubber.

Does the watch require a battery?

No, this is a mechanical automatic watch. It is powered by the movement of your wrist. If not worn, it needs to be wound manually or shaken to keep running.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time

Ensure the watch is being worn regularly or manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise (in position 1) for about 30-40 turns. If the issue persists, the watch may require servicing.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are not setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the date change mechanism. Refer to the user manual for correct date setting procedure.

Difficulty winding the crown

Ensure the crown is in the correct position for winding (Position 1). If it feels jammed, do not force it and consult a watch professional.

Scratches on the crystal

Hardlex crystals offer moderate scratch resistance. For significant scratches, replacement of the crystal by a qualified watchmaker may be necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable automatic movement
  • Durable stainless steel construction
  • Luminous hands and markers for visibility
  • Classic black dial with date function

Cons

  • 50m water resistance is limited for water activities
  • Hardlex crystal is less scratch-resistant than sapphire
  • Automatic watches require regular wear or winding to maintain accuracy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To start your Presage watch, gently shake it back and forth for about 30 seconds to wind the mainspring. If the watch has stopped, you can manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise while it is in the normal position (Position 1). Avoid overwinding.

Compatibility: This is a standalone mechanical watch and does not require connection to any external devices or software. The standard 20mm lug width allows for compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket watch straps should you wish to customize its look.

Care:

  • Clean the stainless steel case and bracelet periodically with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn grime, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
  • Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemicals.
  • While rated for 50m water resistance, avoid submerging the watch for extended periods, swimming, or showering to preserve its integrity.
  • Have the water resistance checked periodically, especially after a battery change (not applicable for automatic watches) or if the watch has sustained an impact.
