Frequently Asked Questions - Star SDX00001W0 ORIENT

How do I wind the ORIENT Star SDX00001W0?

To wind the watch, ensure the crown is in its normal position (pushed in). Slowly turn the crown clockwise (to the right). Turning counterclockwise has no effect. Do not force the crown when fully wound; stop when resistance is felt.

How do I set the time on this watch?

Pull the crown out when the second hand reaches the 12 o'clock position (the second hand stops). Turn the crown clockwise to set the current time. For precise setting, first turn the hand back slightly past the correct time, then advance it to the exact time. Push the crown back in to resume operation.

What does the power reserve indicator show?

The power reserve indicator shows approximately how much running time remains. The hand points to a scale (e.g., 50 hours when fully wound). As the mainspring unwinds, the hand moves toward zero. The display is an approximation.

Is this watch water resistant?

The manual does not specify a water resistance rating for this model. Assume it is not water resistant or only resistant to splashes. Avoid contact with water, and do not operate the crown when wet.

What is the daily accuracy of the ORIENT Star SDX00001W0?

The watch has a daily accuracy of +25 to -15 seconds under normal conditions (fully wound, dial up, at room temperature after 24 hours). Actual accuracy may vary with wearing position and winding state.

How does magnetism affect the watch?

Exposure to strong magnetic fields can temporarily cause the watch to run fast or slow. Keep away from magnets, speakers, and other magnetic sources. Precision is restored once removed from the magnetic field.

What should I avoid to prevent damage?

Avoid dropping the watch or subjecting it to strong shocks. Do not use in high temperatures (e.g., sauna) or near chemicals, solvents, perfumes, or gases. Keep away from extreme cold or heat.

How should I clean and maintain the watch?

Wipe the case and strap with a soft, dry cloth after use. If exposed to seawater, rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly. For leather or nylon straps, avoid excessive moisture. Do not use solvents or detergents.

How long does the watch run when fully wound?

When fully wound, the watch runs continuously for more than 50 hours. It is recommended to wind the watch fully at the same time each day for consistent accuracy.

What is the second hand halt mechanism?

The second hand halt mechanism stops the second hand when the crown is pulled out, allowing precise time setting. This feature is standard on this caliber.

* It is recommended that you use the watch correctly following the above-mentioned scope of usage after ascertaining water resistance precautions marked on the dial or caseback.

WARNING

① A watch with water resistance for daily life 30m (3 bar) can be used during face-washing, etc. but cannot be used in an environment in which it will be submerged in water.
② A watch with reinforced water resistance for daily life I 50m (5 bar) can be used while swimming, etc. but cannot be used during any type of diving including skin diving.
③ A watch with reinforced water resistance for daily life II 100m or 200m (10 or 20 bar) can be used while skin diving, but cannot be used while scuba diving using oxygen tanks or saturation diving using helium gas, etc.

CAUTION

④ Keep the crown pushed in at all times (in the normal position) while using the watch. If the crown is the screwed-down type, check that it is securely screwed down.
⑤ Do not operate the crown underwater, or while the watch is wet. Water may enter the interior of the watch and defeat the water resistance.
⑥ If your watch is non-water resistant, beware of splashes of water (during face washing, rain, etc.) and sweat. If the watch becomes wet from water or sweat, wipe the moisture off with a dry, soft cloth.
⑦ Even with a water resistant watch for everyday use, avoid directing strong jets of mains water onto the watch. Water pressure above the limit can apply, which may defeat the water resistance.
⑧ With a water resistant watch for everyday use, rinse sea water off the case after exposure, then wipe it thoroughly to avoid corrosion and other effects.
⑨ The interior of the watch contains some amount of moisture, which may cause fogging on the inside of the glass when the outside air is cooler than the internal temperature of the watch. If the fogging is temporary it causes no harm inside the watch, but if prolonged, or if water enters the watch, consult your place of purchase and do not leave the problem untreated.

(2) Shock

① Be sure not to carry the watch when you engage in strenuous sports, whereas playing such light sports as golf, etc., will not adversely influence the watch.
② Avoid a violent shock such as dropping the watch on the floor.

(3) Magnetism

① If the watch is left at a location with strong magnetism for an extended period of time, the components may be magnetized, resulting in malfunction. Be careful.
② The watch may temporarily speed up or slow down when exposed to magnetism. Precision is restored when placed away from magnetism. In such a case, reset the time.

(4) Vibration

The watch may lose precision if subjected to strong vibrations such as from riding motorcycles, using jackhammers, chain saws, etc.

(5) Temperature

In environments below and above normal temperatures (5°C-35°C), the watch may malfunction and stop.

Do not use the watch at high temperatures, such as in a sauna. The watch may heat and cause burns.

(6) Chemicals, Gases, etc.

Utmost caution must be exercised when coming into contact with gases, mercury, chemicals (paint thinner, gasoline, various solvents, detergents containing such components, adhesives, paint, drugs, perfumes, cosmetics, etc.), and so forth. Such may cause discoloration of the watchcase, watchband, and dial face. Discoloration, deformation, and damage to various resin-based component parts may also occur.

(7) About accessory parts

CAUTION

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify this product.

WARNING

Store the bracelet/strap pin and other small parts out of the reach of children.

If any small parts are swallowed, immediately contact a doctor.

(8) Allergic reactions

CAUTION

If you develop a skin rash or your skin becomes abnormally irritated due to contact with the watch or strap, stop wearing the watch immediately and consult a doctor.

(9) About "luminous light"

Some watch have luminous light on the hands and dial.

The luminous light is a safe paint that stores sunlight and artificial light without using any radioactive material, and emits that light in a dark setting. As the paint discharges the stored light, it will become dimmer over time. The amount of light emitted and the time that light is emitted depends on various factors when the light is stored, such as the shape of the glass, the thickness of the paint, surrounding brightness level, the distance from the watch to the light source, and the light absorption level. Please note that when not enough light energy is stored, the watch may emit weak light or emit light for only a short time.

(10) Water resistant watchband

Some products employ leather and nylon bands on which a special treatment to resist perspiration and water absorption have been applied. Please understand that the water resisting effect of this watchband can be lost depending on the period and conditions of use.

◆ HOW TO IDENTIFY THE CALIBER NUMBER

Check the caliber number by referring to the model number of your watch or the case code on the watch's case back.

1. Searching by 10-digit model number

Check the 10-digit model number on the guarantee supplied with your watch. You can also see the number on the product tag put on the watch. Its second and third digits indicate the caliber number of your watch.

Example: If the model number is “☐DX00001W☐”, the caliber number is “DX”.

2. Searching by the case code

See the case code on the case back of your watch.

The first two digits indicate the caliber number.

Example:

When the case code is "DX00-C0", the caliber number is "DX".

* The place of case code may vary and its letter size may be small and difficult to see depending on the characteristics of watches.
* The pictures and illustrations on this manual may differ from the actual appearance of your watch but the functions and operation procedures are the same.

◆ ABOUT THE HAND-WINDING MECHANISM

① This is a hand-winding mechanical watch.
② You can wind the mainspring by turning the crown.

To wind the mainspring, ensure that the crown is in its normal position and slowly turn it to the right (clockwise).

Turning the crown to the left (counterclockwise) will have no effect.

③ You will not be able to turn the crown anymore once the watch is fully wound. Be careful not to attempt to wind it past this point as doing so may damage the mainspring or other parts.
④ After the mainspring is fully wound, the watch will run continuously for more than 50 hours.

The mainspring should be fully wound at the same time each day.

If the mainspring is not wound sufficiently, it may cause the watch to gain/lose time.

◆ HOW TO SET THE TIME

(1) Pull the crown out when the second hand reaches the 12 o'clock position. (The second hand stops.)

(2) Turn the crown clockwise and set the current time.

* When setting the time, first bring the hand back slightly later the actual time and then move it forward to the actual time.

(3) Press the crown in to the normal position.

◆ POWER RESERVE INDICATOR

The power reserve indicator shows how much the watch is wound, allowing you to see how much longer the watch will run at a glance. The time pointed to by the power reserve hand is the remaining time.

* The remaining time shown is only an approximation. The time shown may be different from actual remaining time.

This product has a hand-winding system which comes with a power reserve indicator function. The power reserve hand is pointing to the fully-wound position (50H). If you do not wind manually, the power reserve hand will move toward zero as time passes.

◆ HOW TO USE THE ROTATING INDICATOR BEZEL

Please notice that some models come with a rotating indicator bezel, which should be used properly.

Turn the bezel by pointing the ▽ mark to the minute-hand. While certain time goes by, you can measure the elapsed time from the distance between minute-hand and figures on the rotating indicator bezel. You can also set the ▽ mark as a desired time to remind you how long time is still remain for an appointment.

You cannot turn the bezel reversely since it comes with a protection mechanism for preventing wrong operation by force or shock. Figures on the bezel could also help you to read the current time easily.

Rotating bezel

The above shows that 20 minutes have elapsed from 10:10.

* Depending on design, anti-reversely and 1 minute "click" sound mechanism on rotating indicator bezel does not apply to some models.
