3. Impostazione

Avvolgimento iniziale

As an automatic mechanical watch, your BERNY AM022M does not use a battery. For the first use, or if the watch has stopped due to lack of motion, it must be manually wound. To do this, rotate the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times while it is in the normal (pushed-in) position. This will build up enough power reserve to start the watch and allow the automatic winding mechanism to take over with wrist movement.

Impostazione dell'ora e della data

Per impostare l'ora e la data:

1. Pull the crown out to the first position: Ruotare la corona in senso antiorario per regolare la data.
2. Pull the crown out to the second position: Rotate the crown to adjust the hour and minute hands. Turn the hands clockwise until the correct time is displayed. Ensure you pass 12 o'clock to determine if it is AM or PM, especially when setting the date.
3. Push the crown back to the normal position: Once the time and date are set, push the crown firmly back into its original position to ensure water resistance.

Nota importante: Do not set the date between 9 PM and 1 AM. Adjusting the date during this period can interfere with the internal date change mechanism and potentially damage the movement. If you need to set the date within this timeframe, first adjust the time outside of this window (e.g., to 6 AM), set the date, and then reset the time to the current time.

4. Istruzioni per l'uso

Carica automatica

Your BERNY AM022M watch is equipped with a Japanese automatic movement (Miyota 8215) that winds itself through the natural motion of your wrist. When worn regularly (typically 8-10 hours a day), the watch will maintain its power reserve and continue to run accurately. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it may stop. In this case, manually wind it as described in the 'Initial Winding' section before wearing.

Resistenza all'acqua

The watch has a water resistance rating of 10 ATM (100 meters). This means it is suitable for everyday use, showering, swimming, and snorkeling. However, it is non suitable for scuba diving or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Do not operate the crown while the watch is wet or submerged.

The BERNY AM022M watch is water resistant up to 10 ATM (100 meters).

5. Manutenzione

Pulizia

To maintain the appearance of your watch, wipe the case and sapphire crystal with a soft, dry cloth. For the silicone strap, you can use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry completely. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the watch's finish.

Magazzinaggio

When not wearing your watch for extended periods, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. A watch box or pouch is ideal for protection.

Servizio

Mechanical watches benefit from periodic servicing (typically every 3-5 years) by a qualified watchmaker to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This involves cleaning, lubricating, and regulating the movement.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• Watch not running or stopping frequently: Ensure the watch is fully wound (manual winding 30-40 turns) and worn for at least 8-10 hours daily. If it still stops, the power reserve might be insufficient or there could be an internal issue.
• La data non cambia a mezzanotte: This usually indicates the AM/PM setting is incorrect. Advance the time by 12 hours. Remember the caution about setting the date between 9 PM and 1 AM.
• Imprecisione temporale: Automatic watches may have slight variations in timekeeping. If the watch is consistently gaining or losing significant time (more than +/- 30 seconds per day), it may require regulation by a watchmaker.
• Condensazione sotto il cristallo: If you notice moisture inside the watch, immediately pull out the crown to the time-setting position and seek professional service. This indicates a breach in water resistance.
