3. Nastavení a počáteční navíjení

Your Spinnaker Croft watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement (Seiko NH35), which means it is wound by the motion of your wrist. It does not require batteries. For initial setup or after a period of inactivity, manual winding is recommended.

1. Odšroubujte korunku: Gently unscrew the crown counter-clockwise until it pops out to the first position. This is the winding position.
2. Ruční navíjení: Otočte korunkou ve směru hodinových ručiček přibližně 20–30krát. Tím se zajistí dostatečná rezerva chodu pro spuštění hodinek.
3. Nastavení data: Pull the crown out to the second position. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) to set the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
4. Nastavení času: Pull the crown out to the third position. Turn the crown to set the correct time. Ensure the AM/PM is correctly set by advancing the hands past 12 o'clock to see if the date changes.
5. Zajistěte korunu: Once time and date are set, push the crown back in and screw it down clockwise firmly against the case. This ensures water resistance.

4. Ovládání hodinek

4.1 Automatické natahování

Once manually wound, the watch will continue to operate as long as it is worn regularly. The automatic movement harnesses the kinetic energy from your arm's motion to wind the mainspring. If the watch is not worn for an extended period (typically 40+ hours), it will stop and require manual winding to restart.

4.2 Using the Unidirectional Bezel

The Spinnaker Croft features a unidirectional rotating bezel. This bezel is designed to rotate only counter-clockwise to prevent accidental changes that could overestimate elapsed time during a dive. To use it:

1. Align the bezel's zero marker with the minute hand at the start of your activity (e.g., a dive or cooking).
2. Jak čas plyne, minutová ručička bude ukazovat uplynulý čas na stupnici lunety.

4.3 Světelný displej

The hands and hour markers of your Spinnaker Croft watch are coated with luminous material to ensure readability in low-light conditions. Exposure to light will charge the luminescence, allowing it to glow in the dark.
