Possible causes
The power supplied by the mainspring has been
consumed.
The watch is worn on your wrist only for a short
period of time, or the amount of arm movement
is small.
The watch has been left or worn in extremely
high or low temperatures.
The watch has been left close to an object with a
strong magnetic field.
You drop the watch, hit it against a hard surface, or wear it while
playing active sports. The watch is exposed to strong vibrations.
Moisture has entered the watch because the
gasket has deteriorated.
The watch has been left at a temperature below
0ºC.
When starting the watch, it takes a little time
before the adjustment function starts working
(this is not a malfunction).
AM/PM is not properly set.
Solutions
Refer to "HOW TO USE" section of this booklet to wind the mainspring and reset the time. While
you are wearing the watch or when you take it off, check the remaining power shown by the power
reserve indicator and wind the mainspring if necessary.
Wear the watch for an extended period of time, or when taking off the watch, turn the crown to
wind the mainspring if the remaining power shown by the power reserve indicator is not sufficient
for the next use.
Return the watch to a normal temperature so that it works accurately as usual, and then reset the
time. The watch has been adjusted so that it works accurately when it is worn on your wrist
under a normal temperature range between 5 ºC and 35 ºC.
Correct this condition by moving and keeping the watch away from the magnetic source. If this
action does not correct the condition, contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
Reset the time. If the watch does not return to its normal accuracy after resetting the time,
contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
Contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
If the watch is left at a temperature below 0 ºC, it may stop if the power reserve indicator is showing
less than one-sixth of the power reserve. In such a case, turn the crown to wind the mainspring.
It takes several seconds before the adjustment function starts working. Set the time after the
second hand moves for approximately 30 seconds to set the time correctly.
Advance the hour hands for 12 hours to correctly set the time and date.
* In the event of any other problem, please contact the retailer from whom the watch was purchased.
