Preface

Congratulations on the purchase of your new DETOMASO watch. Now you are the owner of a timepiece of maximum precision and innovative design.

For years we stock all important spare parts for each model to ensure professional repair service. Please read the following operating instructions carefully so we can guarantee proper functioning of your new watch for many years to come.

EN

Water resistance

The water resistance of your DETOMASO watch has been tested for 5 ATM. This means that you may wash your hands or take a bath with it and that it is spraywaterproof. However, swimming, taking a shower or diving is not suitable.

Water resistance is a non-lasting quality that requires annual check-ups, especially prior to exposition of external stress because the built-in sealing elements will decrease in their efficiency due to everyday use. Seals are used to guarantee the water resistance of a watch. These seals have a natural aging process and are prone to become porous due to the effects of sweat and acids.

The ISO 2281 regulates criteria and standards that new watches must meet. The resilience is stated in ATM on the base of the casing. Your DETOMAS0-watch has a designated water resistance of 5 ATM. The stated pressure of „5 ATM“ should not be mistaken for the diving depth. It is merely the definition of the test pressure. A test pressure of „5 ATM“ is reached at a water depth of 50 m.

EN

The guaranteed test pressure allowed to be imposed on the seals may suddenly be increased and surmounted during swimming or when jumping into water.

This is most likely to occur if one jumps into water after an extended period of sunbathing. Here the impact pressure and vacuum caused by cooling will add up and can cause damage.

Please check the seals every time you change the battery and renew them if necessary.

EN

Caring instructions

Your watch is a masterpiece of electronics and maximum precision mechanics. It should be a reliable time keeper for years. Protect your watch against impact, magnetic fields, high temperatures, water and chemicals as well as against mechanical wear. Watches should always be taken off during sleep.

If a battery-operated watch stops or a low battery status is indicated it should immediately be serviced at a specialist shop to avoid that the empty battery causes damage to the watch or to the environment.

In any way the battery should be changed regularly at intervals of 1 - 1 12 years. Here again please check the seals every time you change the battery and renew them if necessary.

If there is condensation, (fog under the glass), the watch must be taken to a specialist shop immediately to avoid that the humidity causes any damage. The crown should always be pushed in while wearing.

Setting the moon phase

Pull out the crown into the 1st position. Turn the crown clockwise to set the moon phase. In order to set the moon phase precisely it is recommended to set it either during the new moon phase (the moon is faded out in the display) or during a full moon phase (the moon is fully displayed).

The full moon phases for the next years are listed in the full moon table.

Setting the date

Pull out the crown into the 1st position. Turn the crown counter-clockwise for a quick setting of the date. Do not set the date between 9 pm and half past midnight. Otherwise the date might not change the next day. After setting the date push the crown back to its normal position.

Taking time with the chronograph

1. Push button A to start the chronograph
2. The chronograph can be started and stopped with each push of button A.
3. Push button B to reset the chronograph. The minute hand and second hand will return to the zero position.

EN

Calibration of the Chronograph

This should be done if the minute hand and the second hand do not return to the zero position or after a battery change.

1. Pull out the crown to position 2
2. Press button "A" to advance the second hand of the chronograph, press button B to reset. The minute hand of the chronograph will be synchronized with the second hand of the chronograph. You may move the second hand of the chronograph in fast forward or fast reverse by holding button A or B in.
3. Once the hands have been reset to zero position please reset the time and push back the crown in its normal position.
