HOW DO I SET MY WATCH?
Please read before setting your watch

Winding your watch:
For most watches you must first unscrew the crown counter clockwise. The stem will spring out by itself. Rotate the crown clockwise about 20-30 revolutions. This will give the watch an initial pre charge. If you do not wear the watch on a daily basis you will need to charge your watch as it will de-wind as it sits. While wearing the watch the kinetic movement maintains the watches power and keeps the time and charge. You will never need to replace a battery as the watch is fully mechanical. We do recommend that you have your watch serviced once a year, as all automatic replicas require. Any watch repair shop should be able to do this for your. Our automatic replicas come with a Japanese Miyoca movement. One of the highest quality Japanese movements in today's market.

Setting the date and time:
Unscrew the crown so it releases. Pull the crown out one detent and rotate the crown counter clockwise to scroll through the days. If today is the 15th you want to initially set the date to the 14th. Next gently pull the crown out to the next detent. Rotate the hands counter clockwise until the date flips to the 15th. Now you know that it is the 15th AM. If you are setting the time to 6:00 P.M rotate the hands one more revolution and then to 6:00 PM. For chronograph date indicator press the side button to achieve the same results. See more detail.

Sizing your watch:
For metal bands we recommend that you take the watch to a watch repair shop. They should be able to size the watch for you for about $5.00. Leather band watches are sized differently depending on the security clasp. Unscrew pin, pull it out, uncrew next pin and pull it out. Seperate the link and screw back together. If you have any questions please email us to service@watchnreplica.com and we will walk you through it.

Care of your New Watch:
Like any other fine quality watch, water does damage. Avoid submerging your watch or wearing it in the shower. Although your watch is manufactured with proper O-rings and gaskets. Water may still make it's way into the casing, usually, due to crowns not fully seated. All automatic watches require servicing sooner or later. A good tune up will ensure a long lasting watch. Quartz battery operated watches typically need a new battery every two to three years. ( to save battery life make sure the chronograph stop watch is not running when not in use) Any watch repair shop should be able to service your watch.

Setting time

After setting your watch you must Physically wear the watch 24-48hr so the watch has time to wind itself up and keep time properly.

You have just received your new watch. Odds are that it currently isn't running. There are no batteries in it at all. It stores energy inside it as you wear it and move around, we recommend wearing the watch for a full few days to really get it going.

Watch Care and Crown Positioning for the Rolex Datejust

Setting time on: COSMOGRAPH DAYTONAS

	Pos. 1 - Pressure-proof position Unscrew the button in the anti-clockwise direction.
	Pos. 2 •  Softly pull the button out a little bit. The best way to do this is to use first and second finger and use finger knuckle as a lever in order to pull the button out with as little force as possible. You can feel a little "click"! Now you can set the time by turning it anti-clockwise. When time is set, push the button back in the whole way and turn the button clockwise for a few rounds.
