MECHANICAL: MANUAL WIND WATCHES

NOTE: Your watch will have either a “pull-out” or “screw-down”
crown. To determine this, gently try to pull out the crown to position
(2). If it does so, your watch has a pull-out crown. If not, use the
thumb and forefinger to apply mild pressure on the crown while
rotating toward you to release it. If it does so, your watch has a
screw-down crown.

The crown has three positions:
1. Normal position – recessed.
2. Extended position – to set the date.
3. Fully extended position – to set the time.
Note: If your watch does NOT have a date calendar the crown will only
have 2 positions (1 & 3 from above).

Manual Winding
Leaving the crown in position (1), wind the watch by turning the crown
away from you until fully wound (approximately 20-30 times).
Do not over wind.

NOTE: This operation should be consistently done at the same
time every day (for example, every morning or every evening).
