Frequently Asked Questions - Helvetus Automatic Swiss Military Hanowa
How do I set the time and date on my Swiss Military Hanowa Helvetus Automatic?
Pull the crown out to the first position to adjust the date, and to the second position to set the time. Rotate the crown clockwise to advance the hour and minute hands. For date adjustment, avoid changing the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to prevent damage to the movement.
How do I wind the watch manually if it has stopped?
If the watch has stopped, you can wind it manually by turning the crown in the clockwise direction (when pushed in) for about 20-30 rotations. The automatic movement will also wind as you wear it.
Is the watch water-resistant? Can I swim with it?
Yes, typically the Helvetus Automatic has a water resistance of 10 ATM (100 meters), suitable for swimming and snorkeling but not for diving. Always ensure the crown is pushed in fully before water contact.
What is the power reserve of the watch?
The power reserve is approximately 38 to 42 hours when fully wound. If not worn for more than two days, the watch may stop and need manual winding or motion to restart.
How do I care for the leather strap?
Avoid exposing the leather strap to water, sweat, or harsh chemicals. Clean with a dry cloth and store away from direct sunlight. Replace the strap if it shows signs of wear.
How often should the watch be serviced?
We recommend a professional service every 3 to 5 years to ensure optimal performance. This includes oiling, cleaning, and regulating the movement.
Can I replace the battery?
No, the Helvetus Automatic is a mechanical watch powered by movement, not a battery. It does not require a battery replacement.
What should I do if the watch runs fast or slow?
If the watch consistently gains or loses time, it may need regulation. Have it checked by an authorized watchmaker. Environmental factors like magnetism or shocks can affect accuracy.
How do I adjust the metal bracelet length?
The stainless steel bracelet usually has removable links. Use a pin removal tool or take it to a jeweler to adjust the length. Do not force the pins.
Where can I get spare parts or repairs?
Contact Swiss Military Hanowa customer service or an authorized service center for genuine spare parts and professional repairs. Avoid non-authorized sellers.
