C60 Abyss GMT

Travel has always been an inspiration to watchmakers.

And your C60 Abyss GMT is proof of that.

GMT watches were created in the 1950s to enable long-haul pilots

to monitor their ‘home’ timezone by using a fourth ‘GMT’ hand with

a 24-hour bezel. They’ve been a favourite movement ever since.

But the C60 Abyss GMT is no ordinary GMT. While its four-handed

dial follows the original template, everything about its design is

dierent.

The matte-black and tungsten-brushed bezel is textured and subtle.

The glossy red fourth hand is like a beacon against the monochrome

dial. And the light-catcher case – with its DLC (diamond-like

carbon) and gunmetal elements – is pure mood music for your wrist.

You don’t need us to tell you the appeal of the C60 Abyss GMT –

after all, you’ve bought it – but we can say one thing: you’ve bought

an exceptional and unique timing instrument.

How to operate your C60 Abyss GMT

For a superior water resistance your crown is of the screw-down

type. The crown should sit ush to the case (position 1) in order to

maintain water resistance.

• First unscrew the crown anti-clockwise from the case to position

2for winding in power. Wind in a clockwise direction to re-power

the watch. Your C60 Abyss GMT has a maximum power reserve of

42 hours when fully wound. Normal wearing will allow the rotor to

start re-powering the watch over time after putting on your wrist.

• Pull gently into position 3. For rapid date correction, turn in an

anti-clockwise direction. To set the GMT hand, turn the crown

clockwise and rotate the hand until you have reached the desired

time indication. The GMT hand moves in one-hour increments.

• Pull gently into position 4. This position is used for handsetting

and stopping of the seconds hand. For precise time setting it is

recommended to pass beyond the desired minute and to set the

hand backwards.

Unscrew and then pull

PLEASE NOTE:

Date correction should not be carried out between 20.00 hr and

02.00 hr as the watch gearing will already be aligning itself to

change the date. The crown should always be pushed in after

adjustment, and it is best to do so from position 3to avoid

advancing beyond the desired date. You must always ensure the

crown is fully tightened before any use in water.

How to operate your C60 Abyss GMT

Using the GMT hand for travel

Set the time in your new destination by pulling the crown into

position 4and move the hour/ minute hands until they indicate the

desired time.

Push crown into position 3and wind, clockwise, the GMT hand

around the 24-hour scale on the bezel until you have the right time

at home. E.g. If you’re travelling from London at 12.10 to New York,

you would turn the hour/minute hands to 7.10 (New York time is

ve hours behind London) and wind the GMT hand around to the

12.10 position.

Once set, it means that, for example, you can gauge the time to

ring your friends and family without waking them in the middle of

the night.

PLEASE NOTE:

The table opposite can be used to determine the appropriate time

zone when setting the hour/minute hands.
