Band adjustment

We recommend seeking the assistance of an experienced watch technician

for sizing of your watch. If adjustment is not done correctly, the bracelet may

unexpectedly become detached leading to loss of your watch or injury (excluding

products containing the band adjustment tool).

Consult an authorized service center.

Protective stickers

Be sure to remove any protective stickers that may be on your watch (case back,

band, clasp, etc.). Otherwise, perspiration or moisture may enter the gaps between

the protective stickers and the parts, which may result in a skin rash and/or

corrosion of the metal parts.

This is an automatic mechanical watch powered by a spring.

When wearing the watch, your arm’s movement rotates the oscillating weight to

wind the mainspring automatically.

• When your arm’s movement is small and/or a few, winding will become

insufficient. We recommend to wear the watch as long as possible or wind the

mainspring manually in such cases.

• Duration of movement after the mainspring is wound fully may differ depending

on models. For details, see the next page or "Specifications" (→ page

).
