Frequently Asked Questions - C4445 Candino

How to set the time on my Candino C4445 watch?

To set the time, pull the crown to position III (the seconds hand stops). Turn the crown until the correct time is displayed (e.g., 08:45). Push the crown back to position I. For precise second setting, pull the crown when the seconds hand is at 60, then push it back at the desired moment.

How to perform a quick date correction?

To quickly correct the date, pull the crown to position II (the watch continues to run). Turn the crown until the correct date appears. Push the crown back to position I. Warning: between 9 PM and midnight, the calendar is engaging; it is advisable to set the date back one day then forward if necessary.

How to use the chronograph for simple timing?

For simple timing (start/stop/reset), press pusher A to start. Press A again to stop. The counter hands indicate the elapsed time (1/10s, 60s, 30min). To reset, press pusher B.

How to use the chronograph totalizing function?

To totalize multiple times, start with pusher A (start). To stop, press A (stop). To restart, press A (restart). Repeat. After the last stop, the total time is displayed. Press B to reset.

How to time split times?

To time a split time, start with A. To record a split, press B (the hand stops but timing continues in the background). To catch up to real time, press B again. To stop definitively, press A. Reset with B.

What to do if the chronograph hands are not at zero?

If one or more chronograph hands do not return correctly to zero (e.g., after a battery change), they need to be adjusted. Pull the crown to position III, then press both pushers A and B simultaneously for at least 2 seconds. The center seconds counter hand makes a full turn, activating correction mode. Use A to adjust the selected hand step by step or continuously, and B to move to the next hand (hours counter, then minutes). Push the crown back to position I to finish.

How to adjust the chronograph hands to zero position?

See the previous question.

Which battery to use for the Candino C4445 watch?

The watch uses a button cell battery type 395 (also referenced SR927SW). Its dimensions are 9.5 mm x 2.6 mm. It is recommended to have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker.

How to set the date and time simultaneously?

To set the date and time, proceed as follows: 1) Pull the crown to position II (the watch continues). 2) Turn to display the day before the correct date (e.g., 3 for the 4th). 3) Pull the crown to position III (seconds stop). 4) Turn to display the correct date (4). 5) Continue turning to set the current time (e.g., 20:30). 6) Push the crown back to position I. Observe the 24-hour cycle for AM/PM alternation.

What to do in case of battery change?

The battery change must be performed by a professional to avoid damaging the movement. Use a battery type 395 (SR927SW). After replacement, it may be necessary to readjust the chronograph hands (see question 6).
