windinG The waTCh
Your SOLO-32 can be wound from crown position I by rotating the crown
in a clockwise direction. Although the movement will automatically start
with just a few revolutions of the rotor, it is better to wind the movement
fully with 30-40 revolutions of the crown. By doing this you will achieve
maximum accuracy and have a power reserve of 38-hours, even when the
watch is not on your wrist.
SeTTinG The daTe
You can adjust the date by pulling out the crown to position II. You will
now be able to change the date by rotating the crown clockwise.
SeTTinG The Time
Pull the crown out to position III, this will stop the movement, you can
now position the minute hand exactly. To start the second hand, push
the crown back to position I. When setting the time, it is worth noting
that the date change always takes place at midnight (00:00). If this
change has already taken place at 12:00 noon, you must move the hands
forward by 12 hours. Always ensure that the crown is screwed back in
after setting the watch.
ChrOnOmeTer TeSTinG
Your Bremont watch is chronometer tested and accompanied by a
performance certificate issued by the 'Controle Officiel Suisse des
Chronometeres' (COSC) to show that the mechanical movement has passed
all of the rigorous precision tests - a necessity of the chronometer designation.
Important notice: Remember to complete and return the CosC
registration card to Bremont, registering your watch and to receive
your certificate.
The chronometer certification, which takes 15 days to complete over several
different temperature ranges and watch positions, means that the average
daily variation rate will be between -4 and +6 seconds. With 86,400 seconds
in a single day, this gives Bremont' s watches an accuracy of 99.998%.
waTCh Care
Bremont watches are put through extensive testing before they are released
from the workshop - whether it is for time-keeping precision, temperature,
shock and scratch resistance or pressure testing; all of our strict tolerances have
to be met. Although Bremont watches have more than proved their resilience
before they are released from our workshop, we want to ensure that the
enjoyment that comes from wearing a Bremont timepiece lasts generations. We
therefore recommend that the following tips for watch care are observed...
