WATCH INSTRUCTIONS

All watches tell the time... but not all watches operate the same way. Understanding how your timepiece works is a crucial part of ownership and maintenance. If your watch has an automatic movement it will need more care and attention than one which features a quartz movement. Below we've outlined some of the key differences between automatic and quartz operated watches.

For an automatic self-winding watch to function properly the mainspring must build up a sufficient power reserve. Many people are unaware that a self-winding watch needs to be wound first manually before it will run automatically. This is called the initiation process and without this, your timepiece will never operate properly or consistently.

AUTOMATIC TIMEPIECES

To initiate the watch, turn the winding crown at the 3 o'clock position in a clockwise direction for about 20 revolutions. This start up wind is usually sufficient for most automatic watches. The initiation process will manually tighten the small spring inside of the watch, so that it builds up enough tension for the timepiece to operate. As the spring starts to unfurl itself it will pull along the cogs that, through intricate engineering, in turn, move the hands. Once the spring is completely unfurled then the watch will stop operating.

01 — PUSH THE CROWN IN

Make sure the crown is fully pushed in, so the winding mechanism is connected to the crown. If the crown is pulled out, the watch will be in time-setting mode.

02 — ROTATE THE CROWN

Rotate the crown in a clockwise direction (away from yourself) for around 20-30 full rotations. This should wind the mainspring enough so that it is fully charged.

03 — REPEAT IF NOT WORN (FOR AT LEAST 15 HOURS)

A fully charged watch should last for around 10-15 hours without any movement 'topping it up'. If it's not worn for at least this period of time you will need to repeat the process.

HOW TO RESIZE THE REAPER AUTOMATIC

01 — LIFT THE BUCKLE

Using either a flathead screwdriver or other adjustment tool.

02 — SHIFT THE BUCKLE

To the desired slot to adjust the length of the strap.

03 — PRESS THE BUCKLE

down firmly to secure the clasp. You will hear an audible click.
