2.2 Stel die tyd in

1. Gently pull the crown (the knob on the side of the watch) out to its outermost position.
2. Draai die kroon kloksgewys of antikloksgewys om die uur- en minuutwysers op die korrekte tyd te stel.
3. Once the time is set, push the crown back into its original position.

2.3 Winding the Automatic Movement

Your AVI-8 watch is powered by an automatic movement, which means it winds itself through the motion of your wrist. If the watch has stopped or its power reserve is low, you can manually wind it:

• Ensure the crown is in its innermost position (not pulled out).
• Turn the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will provide enough power for the watch to start running.
• Wearing the watch regularly will keep it wound. The movement has a power reserve of approximately 42 hours when fully wound.

2.4 Verstelling van die leerbandjie

The watch features a genuine leather strap with a buckle clasp. To adjust the fit, simply select the appropriate hole on the strap and secure the buckle pin through it. Ensure the fit is snug but comfortable, allowing for proper air circulation.

The AVI-8 Hawker Typhoon Baldwin Automatic Watch features a unique dial design:

• Main Hands: The central hour and minute hands indicate the current time.

3.2 Automatic Movement Overview

The Japanese Miyota automatic movement does not require a battery. It is powered by the natural motion of your arm. When worn daily, the watch will remain wound. If the watch is not worn for an extended period (beyond its 42-hour power reserve), it will stop. Simply wind it manually as described in Section 2.3 or wear it to restart the movement.

4. Onderhoud en versorging

4.1 Waterbestandheid (5 OTM / 50 meter)

Your watch is water-resistant up to 5 ATM (50 meters). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, showering, and general daily use. It is nie geskik vir duik, snorkel of hoë-impak watersport. Maak altyd seker dat die kroon volledig ingedruk is voor enige kontak met water.

• Avoid operating the crown or pushers when the watch is wet or submerged.
• Na blootstelling aan soutwater, spoel die horlosie met vars water af en droog dit deeglik af met 'n sagte lap.

4.2 Maak jou horlosie skoon

Om die voorkoms van jou horlosie te behou:

• Wipe the case and sapphire lens with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• Vir hardnekkige vuiligheid, 'n effens damp lap kan gebruik word, gevolg deur onmiddellike droogmaak.
• Vermy die gebruik van harde chemikalieë, oplosmiddels of skuurmiddels.

4.3 Leerbandversorging

Die egte leerbandjie benodig spesifieke sorg om sy lewensduur te verleng:

• Vermy langdurige blootstelling aan direkte sonlig, uiterste temperature en vog.
• If the strap gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
• Maak skoon met 'n sagte, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner if necessary.

4.4 Berging

Wanneer jy nie jou horlosie dra nie, bêre dit op 'n koel, droë plek, verkieslik in sy oorspronklike boks of 'n horlosiekas, om dit teen stof en skrape te beskerm.

5. Probleemoplossing

• Horlosie loop nie: If the watch has stopped, it likely needs to be wound. Manually wind the watch by turning the crown clockwise 20-30 times while it is in the innermost position. If it still does not run after winding and wearing, contact customer support.
• Tydsonakkuraatheid: Automatic movements can experience slight variations in timekeeping. If your watch is consistently gaining or losing a significant amount of time (e.g., more than +/- 30 seconds per day), it may require adjustment by a professional watchmaker.
• Moisture Under Crystal: If you notice condensation or moisture under the sapphire lens, this indicates a breach in the water resistance. Immediately take the watch to a qualified watch repair center to prevent further damage to the movement.
