Frequently Asked Questions - C4383 Candino

How do I set the time on my Candino C4383?

Pull the crown out to position III. Turn it to set the hours and minutes. The date adjusts automatically when passing midnight. In position III, the second hand stops (hack function).

How do I set the date?

Pull the crown out to position II. Turn it clockwise to advance the date to the desired day. Avoid setting the date between 8 PM and 4 AM to avoid damaging the mechanism.

How do I use the chronograph in simple mode?

Press pusher A (START/STOP) to start and stop timing. Read the time on the counters (minutes, seconds, 1/10th). Press pusher B to reset the counters to zero.

How do I use the ADD function?

Press A to start, then again to stop. Note the time. Press a third time to restart without resetting, and so on. To reset, press B after a stop.

How do I use the split time (SPLIT) function?

Press A to start. When you want to record an intermediate time, press B: the hands stop to show that time, but the chronograph continues internally. Press B again to resume live display. Press A to stop, then B to reset.

How do I reset the chronograph counters to zero?

Ensure all counters are stopped. If a hand is not exactly at zero, pull the crown to position II or III, then press the dedicated correction pushers (see the manual) to align each counter to its resting position.

What battery does the Candino C4383 use?

The watch uses a button cell battery of type SR626SW (or equivalent). Replacement should be done by a watchmaker to ensure water resistance.

Is the watch water-resistant?

Yes, it withstands a pressure of 3 ATM (30 meters). It is splash-resistant and rain-resistant, but not suitable for swimming or diving.

How do I clean my Candino watch?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the case and strap. Avoid solvents, alcohol, or soapy water. If the strap is leather, avoid any contact with water.

What if my watch runs fast or slow?

This may be due to a magnetic field or a weak battery. Keep the watch away from magnets and have the battery checked by a watchmaker. If the problem persists, a quartz adjustment may be necessary.
