ROTATING BEZEL
1
Turn the rotating bezel to align the
“ ” mark to the minute hand.
2
When time has elapsed, read the
number on the rotating bezel.
The rotating bezel can show up to 60 minutes of elapsed time.
* Turn the hands past the 12 o’clock marker to determine whether the watch is set for the
A.M. or P.M. period. If the calendar changes when the hour hand passes the 12 o’clock
marker, the time is set for A.M. If the calendar does not change, the time is set for P.M.
* When setting the hands, first set them to a time a few minutes earlier than the correct
time, and then advance them to the exact time.
* It is necessary to adjust the date on the first day after a month that has less than 31
days.
Example: Starting time : 10:10
Finishing time : 10:40
Elapsed time : 30 minutes
Elapsed time
* For safety’s sake, the rotating bezel rotates only counterclockwise, so that the time
measured is never shorter than the actual elapsed time.
n TEMPERATURES
The key components in mechanical watches are made of metals, which expand or contract
depending on temperatures due to metal properties. This exerts an effect on the accuracy
of the watches. Mechanical watches tend to loss time at high temperatures while they
tend to gain time at low temperatures.
n CHEMICALS n PERIODIC CHECK n MAGNETISM
Your watch will be
adversely affected by
strong magnetism.
Keep it away from
close contact with
magnetic objects.
It is recommended that the
watch be checked once every 2
to 3 years by an AUTHORIZED
SEIKO DEALER or SER VICE
CENTER to ensure that the
case, crown, gasket and crystal
seal remain intact.
Be careful not to expose the
watch to solvents, mercury,
cosmetic spray, detergents,
adhesives or paints. Other-
wise, the case, bracelet, etc.
may become discolored, dete-
riorated or damaged.
