BLADE
Backed by a heritage of world renown, Blade™ features five-jewel Swiss
movement and carries the Swiss Made mark. To achieve the unique case
design, metal ingots are shaped with 16 million pounds of force then
sculptured with the precision of Computer Numeric Control (CNC) machining.
The final composition blends high-grade stainless steel with pure Oakley
Unobtainium®
.Band options include a bracelet of stainless steel and a strap
with the supple flexibility of Unobtainium®Rubber. A dual-seal crown
protects the case against water pressure equivalent to 330 feet (100 meters)
beneath the surface. Driven with the endurance of a 74-month battery, the
intuitive analog display is sealed with the hardest crystal utilized in
watchmaking, pure sapphire.

SETTING THE TIME
For normal use, the crown rests against the case to maintain a protective
seal. The crown can be pulled out to two click positions for setting the date
and time.
To ensure that the date-change function activates at midnight (and not at
noon), synchronize the timepiece by doing the following:
ab

TO SET THE TIME:
1. Pull the crown out to the first
click position (a).
2. Turn the crown clockwise and set
the timepiece to yesterday’s date.
3. Pull the crown out to the second
click position (b).
4. Turn the hands forward until
today’s date appears, then
continue forward until the
current time is reached. (If the
current time is in the afternoon
or evening, move the hour hand
all the way around the dial to
pass 12 o’clock noon.)
5. Push the crown back down
against the case.
BAND ADJUSTMENT (METAL BRACELET VERSION)
If links need to be added or removed from the bracelet, the adjustment
should be done by an Authorized Oakley Timepiece Dealer. Do not attempt to
shorten the bracelet by removing links yourself, as this may result in damage
to the bracelet.
CLEANING
Failure to keep the case and band clean may result in a skin rash. The metal
bracelet version of Blade™ will become soiled with dust and perspiration due
to contact with skin. Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe off any moisture that
adheres to the case or band. The Unobtainium®Rubber strap version of
Blade™ may require cleaning from time to time, particularly on the underside
that comes in contact with skin. See the Safeguarding section of this manual
for information about water exposure.

SAFEGUARDING
WATER EXPOSURE
Rated at 10-bar hydrophobic, the timepiece may be worn during bathing, swimming
and shallow diving. It is not designed for scuba or saturation diving. Before exposing
the timepiece to moisture, be sure the crown is pushed in fully against the case. Do
not pull out the crown if the timepiece is wet. If used in seawater, rinse the
timepiece with fresh water and dry completely.
TEMPERATURE
For precision timekeeping, normal operating temperature is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
MAGNETISM
Strong magnetic fields can have an adverse affect on the timepiece. Keep it away
from magnetic objects.
CHEMICALS
The timepiece may become discolored or damaged if exposed to cosmetic spray,
detergents, adhesives, solvents, or paints.
SHOCK WAVE
Although the timepiece resists shock damage, impact against a hard surface may
cause damage to the movement or crystal.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Toensure that the case, crown, crystal seal, and gasket remain resistant to water
exposure, it is recommended that the timepiece be inspected once every 2 to 3 years
by an Authorized Oakley Service Center.
