2.1 Addebito iniziale

Your SEIKO Prospex Speedtimer is powered by light energy. Upon receiving your watch, ensure it is exposed to sufficient light to begin charging. A full charge provides approximately 6 months of power reserve. Place the watch in direct sunlight or under strong artificial light for several hours to ensure it is adequately charged before initial use.

2.2 Impostazione dell'ora e della data

1. Estrarre la corona: Estrarre delicatamente la corona fino al secondo scatto. La lancetta dei secondi si fermerà.
2. Imposta l'ora: Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Ensure the 24-hour hand is also set correctly (e.g., if it's 3 PM, set the 24-hour hand to 15).
3. Imposta la data: Push the crown back to the first click position. Turn the crown to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 1 AM to prevent damage to the movement.
4. Spingere la corona: Una volta impostati l'ora e la data, riportare la corona nella posizione normale. La lancetta dei secondi riprenderà a muoversi.

The chronograph function allows for precise time measurement up to 60 minutes in 1/5 second increments.

3.1 Avvio e arresto del cronografo

• Premere il pulsante superiore (A) per avviare il cronografo. La lancetta dei secondi del cronografo inizierà a muoversi.
• Press the upper pusher (A) again to stop the chronograph. The elapsed time will be indicated by the chronograph second hand and minute hand.

3.2 Reimpostazione del cronografo

• After stopping the chronograph, press the lower pusher (B) to reset it. All chronograph hands will return to their zero positions.

3.3 Funzione tachimetro

The tachymeter scale on the bezel can be used to measure speed over a known distance (e.g., 1 kilometer or 1 mile). Start the chronograph at the beginning of the distance. When the unit distance is completed, stop the chronograph. The number on the tachymeter scale indicated by the chronograph second hand is the average speed per hour.

4. Cura e manutenzione

4.1 Resistenza all'acqua

Your watch is water resistant to 10 bar (100 meters / 330 feet). This means it is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for scuba diving. Always ensure the crown is pushed in completely before exposing the watch to water.

4.2 Pulizia

Wipe the watch case and bracelet regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt and moisture. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush with mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

4.3 Cura dei cristalli

The watch features a curved sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating on the inner surface. Sapphire is highly scratch-resistant but not entirely scratch-proof. Avoid impacts and contact with hard surfaces to maintain its pristine condition.

4.4 LumiBrite

The hands and markers are coated with LumiBrite, a luminous paint that absorbs light energy and emits it in the dark. For optimal glow, expose the watch to bright light for a few minutes before entering a dark environment.
