Opsætning og indledende vikling
Your Stauer Graves '33 is an automatic watch, meaning it is powered by the motion of your body. It does not require batteries. For initial setup or if the watch has stopped due to lack of wear, follow these steps:
- Manuel optræk: If the watch has stopped, gently wind the crown (the knob on the side) clockwise 25-50 times, or until you feel slight resistance. This provides the initial power reserve.
- Bære uret: Wear the watch daily. Your natural arm movements will keep the automatic movement wound and the watch running accurately.
- Opbevaring: When not wearing the watch for extended periods, it is recommended to rest it on its side with the crown facing the ceiling to help maintain more accurate time.
This image provides a textual explanation of how the automatic winding mechanism works. It clarifies that daily wear utilizes kinetic energy from body movement to power the watch, negating the need for batteries and reducing the frequency of manual winding.
Betjening af dit ur
The Stauer Graves '33 features multiple functions controlled by the crown and pushers.
Indstillingstid:
- Pull the crown out to its outermost position.
- Drej kronen for at indstille time- og minutviserne til det korrekte klokkeslæt.
- Skub kronen tilbage i sin oprindelige position for at starte uret.
Setting Date, Day, and Month:
The watch features small pushers on the side of the casing, typically near the crown, to adjust the subdials. Use a small, non-metallic pointed tool (like a toothpick) to press these recessed buttons.
- Identify the specific pusher for each subdial (Month, Day, Date). Refer to the watch's design for their exact locations.
- Press the corresponding pusher repeatedly until the correct month, day, or date is displayed.
Understanding the Moon Phase / 24-Hour Indicator:
The subdial often referred to as 'moon phase' on this model functions as a 24-hour indicator, showing whether it is AM or PM. The sun symbol indicates AM hours, and the moon symbol indicates PM hours. This indicator typically advances automatically with the main time.
Vedligeholdelse og pleje
- Rensning: Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For the leather band, use a slightly damp klud og tør straks. Undgå skrappe kemikalier.
- Vandtæthed: While the watch may have some water resistance (e.g., 5 ATM), it is generally not suitable for swimming or showering. Avoid direct contact with water to preserve the leather band and internal mechanisms.
- Undgå ekstreme forhold: Protect your watch from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, strong magnetic fields, and sudden impacts.
- Service: Automatic watches benefit from periodic professional servicing (every 3-5 years) to ensure continued accuracy and longevity.
