Configuración

Bobinado inicial

As an automatic watch, the movement is powered by the motion of your wrist. If the watch has stopped or has not been worn for an extended period, it requires manual winding to initiate operation:

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 1 (winding position).
2. Turn the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will build up sufficient power reserve.
3. Vuelva a colocar la corona y atorníllela firmemente para garantizar la resistencia al agua.

Configuración de hora y fecha

Para configurar la hora y la fecha:

1. Unscrew the crown (if applicable) and pull it out to position 2 (date setting position). Turn the crown to set the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
2. Pull the crown out to position 3 (time setting position). The second hand will stop.
3. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure you pass 12 o'clock to determine if it's AM or PM when setting the date.
4. Once the time is set, push the crown back to position 0 and screw it down tightly.

Resistencia al agua

This watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This rating makes it suitable for swimming and snorkeling. However, it is no recommended for diving. Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down to maintain water resistance. Do not operate the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.

Mantenimiento y cuidado

Proper care will preserve the beauty and functionality of your RAYMOND WEIL watch.

• Limpieza: Wipe the watch regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For water-resistant models, a damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Servicio: Automatic movements require periodic servicing, typically every 3-5 years, by an authorized service center to ensure accuracy and proper function.
• Temperatura: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperature changes or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Campos magnéticos: Keep the watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, certain electronic devices) as they can affect timekeeping accuracy.
• Cuidado de la correa de cuero: Avoid prolonged exposure of the leather strap to water, moisture, sweat, and direct sunlight to prevent damage and discoloration.

Solución de problemas

Si tiene problemas con su reloj, considere las siguientes soluciones comunes:

• El reloj se ha detenido: Manually wind the watch using the crown (30-40 turns). If it still does not start, the power reserve may be depleted, or it may require servicing.
• La hora es inexacta: Ensure the watch is fully wound. Exposure to strong magnetic fields can also affect accuracy. If the issue persists, professional servicing may be needed.
• La fecha no cambia: Check if the time is set correctly for AM/PM. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM.
• Las manecillas del cronógrafo no se reinician a cero: This may indicate a need for adjustment or servicing.
