HOW TO START YOUR WATCH
WATER AND SHOCK RESISTANCE
To start your watch remove the plastic guard from
under the crown, then press the crown in against the
case. The second hand will begin advancing in one-
second intervals.
If your watch is water-resistant, meter marking
(WR_M) is indicated.

Below Surface
Some deep-depth water-resistant watches require
the setting crown to be screwed in to secure water-
resistance. If your watch case has a protrusion with
screw threads, the crown must be screwed in after
setting the watch.

*Do not push crown to normal position while the
chronograph second hand returns to zero position.
It stops on the way when crown is returned to
normal position and its position is recognized as
zero position.
TACHYMETER FUNCTION
The tachymeter will only determine speeds greater
than 60 units per hour using this method; slower
speeds can be measured by decreasing the unit of
measurement. The function performed by a
tachymeter is independent of the unit of distance
(e.g. statute miles, nautical miles, kilometers, meters
etc.) as long as the same unit of length is used for all
calculations.
1) Determine the start and finish markers for your
pre-determined distance.
2) Start the chronograph once the target for speed
measurement passes the start marker.
3) Stop the chronograph once the target for speed
measurement passes the finish marker.
4) The chronograph second hand is compared to the
tachymeter markings to determine the target’s
speed.
