Winding and Time-Setting

Winding and Time-Setting
To ensure optimum performance, we recommend that you fully wind your mechanical watch once a day, ideally at the same time each day. When you wind it, make sure you do not force the crown when it stops, as this could seriously damage the movement.

To ensure the continuous operation of your automatic watch, it must be worn every day. If not, simply give the crown a dozen or so turns before putting it on your wrist.

The date must never be set between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m., otherwise the mechanism may be damaged. It is during these hours that the pinions position themselves to automatically change the date. Be especially careful to always change the date outside this time zone.
