* It is recommended that you use the watch correctly following the above-mentioned scope of usage

after ascertaining water resistance precautions marked on the dial or caseback.

ENGLISH

WARNING

1A watch with water resistance for daily life 30m (3 bar) can be used

during face-washing, etc. but cannot be used in an environment in which

it will be submerged in water.

2A watch with reinforced water resistance for daily life I 50m (5 bar) can be

used while swimming, etc. but cannot be used during any type of diving

including skin diving.

3A watch with reinforced water resistance for daily life II 100m or 200m (10

or 20 bar) can be used while skin diving, but cannot be used while scuba

diving using oxygen tanks or saturation diving using helium gas, etc.

CAUTION

4Keep the crown pushed in at all times (in the normal position) while using

the watch. If the crown is the screwed-down type, check that it is securely

screwed down.

5Do not operate the crown underwater, or while the watch is wet. Water

may enter the interior of the watch and defeat the water resistance.

6If your watch is non-water resistant, beware of splashes of water (during

face washing, rain, etc.) and sweat. If the watch becomes wet from water

or sweat, wipe the moisture off with a dry, soft cloth.

7Even with a water resistant watch for everyday use, avoid directing

strong jets of mains water onto the watch. Water pressure above the limit

can apply, which may defeat the water resistance.

8With a water resistant watch for everyday use, rinse sea water off the case

after exposure, then wipe it thoroughly to avoid corrosion and other effects.

9The interior of the watch contains some amount of moisture, which may

cause fogging on the inside of the glass when the outside air is cooler

than the internal temperature of the watch. If the fogging is temporary

it causes no harm inside the watch, but if prolonged, or if water enters

the watch, consult your place of purchase and do not leave the problem

untreated.

ENGLISH

(2) Shock

1Be sure not to carry the watch when you engage in

strenuous sports, whereas playing such light sports as golf,

etc., will not adversely influence the watch.

2Avoid a violent shock such as dropping the watch on the

floor.

(3) Magnetism

1If the watch is left at a location with strong magnetism for an extended

period of time, the components may be magnetized, resulting in

malfunction. Be careful.

2The watch may temporarily speed up or slow down when exposed to

magnetism. Precision is restored when placed away from magnetism. In

such a case, reset the time.

(4) Vibration

The watch may lose precision if subjected to strong

vibrations such as from riding motorcycles, using

jackhammers, chain saws, etc.

(5) Temperature

In environments below and above normal temperatures (5°C-35°C), the

watch may malfunction and stop.

Do not use the watch at high temperatures, such as in a sauna. The

watch may heat and cause burns.

(6)Chemicals, Gases, etc.

Utmost caution must be exercised when coming into contact with gases,

mercury, chemicals (paint thinner, gasoline, various solvents, detergents

containing such components, adhesives, paint, drugs, perfumes,

cosmetics, etc.), and so forth. Such may cause discoloration of the

watchcase, watchband, and dial face. Discoloration, deformation, and

damage to various resin-based component parts may also occur.

CAUTION

ENGLISH

(7) About accessory parts

CAUTION

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify this product.

WARNING

Store the bracelet/strap pin and other small parts out of the reach of

children.

If any small parts are swallowed, immediately contact a doctor.

(8) Allergic reactions

CAUTION

If you develop a skin rash or your skin becomes abnormally irritated due

to contact with the watch or strap, stop wearing the watch immediately

and consult a doctor.

(9) About “luminous light”

Some watch have luminous light on the hands and dial.

The luminous light is a safe paint that stores sunlight and artificial light

without using any radioactive material, and emits that light in a dark

setting. As the paint discharges the stored light, it will become dimmer

over time. The amount of light emitted and the time that light is emitted

depends on various factors when the light is stored, such as the shape

of the glass, the thickness of the paint, surrounding brightness level, the

distance from the watch to the light source, and the light absorption level.

Please note that when not enough light energy is stored, the watch may

emit weak light or emit light for only a short time.

(10)Water resistant watchband

Some products employ leather and nylon bands on which a special

treatment to resist perspiration and water absorption have been applied.

Please understand that the water resisting effect of this watchband can

be lost depending on the period and conditions of use.

(2) It comes with a second hand halt mechanism.

(3) Shock-proof bearings to protect the balance with hairspring from shocks.

(4) Power reserve indicator.

◆SPECIFICATIONS

(1) Vibrations : 21,600 vibrations / hour

(2) Number of jewels : 21 jewels

(3) Daily accuracy : +25sec. to -15 sec.

(4) Drive system : Mainspring Winding (Hand-winding)

(5) Runing time : More than 40 hours

The stated daily accuracy is in the following conditions:

• After 24 hours at room temperature with the mainspring wound fully and the

dial facing up.

• Due to the characteristics of the mechanical watch, the time may deviate

from the stated “daily accuracy” depending on the following conditions:

position of the watch, winding condition of the mainspring.

Product specifications may change without notice, for improvement.

◆ABOUT THE HAND-WINDING MECHANISM

(1) This is a hand-winding mechanical watch.

(2) You can wind the mainspring by turning the crown.

To wind the mainspring, ensure that the crown is in its normal position

and slowly turn it to the right (clockwise).

Turning the crown to the left (counterclockwise) will have no effect.

CAUTION

(3) You will not be able to turn the crown anymore once the watch is fully

wound. Be careful not to attempt to wind it past this point as doing so

may damage the mainspring or other parts.

(4) After the mainspring is fully wound, the watch will run continuously for

more than 40 hours.

The mainspring should be fully wound at the same time each day.

If the mainspring is not wound sufficiently, it may cause the watch to gain/

lose time.

ENGLISH

HOW TO SET THE TIME

(1) Pull the crown out.

(The second hand stops.)

(2) Turn the crown clockwise and set the

current time.

When setting the time, first bring the

hand back slightly later than the actual

time and then move it forward to the

actual time.

(3) Press the crown in to the normal position.

Turn clockwiseTurn clockwise

ENGLISH

◆POWER RESERVE INDICATOR

The power reserve indicator

shows how much the watch is

wound, allowing you to see how

much longer the watch will run

at a glance. The time pointed to

by the power reserve hand is the

remaining time.

*The remaining time shown is only an approximation. The time shown may

be different from actual remaining time.

This product has a hand-winding system which comes with a power reserve

indicator function. The power reserve hand is pointing to the fully-wound

position (40H). If you do not wind manually, the power reserve hand will move

toward zero as time passes.
