SOLAR COLLECTION
SOLAR POWER FEATURES
This solar powered watch contains a solar cell underneath the dial which converts light into "electrical energy" and stores the power in a secondary battery. Unlike conventional quartz watches, battery replacement is not necessary. Do not replace the rechargeable battery with a different kind of battery.
OPERATING TIME
With a full charge, the watch will operate for approximately 4 months.
POWER DEPLETION WARNING FUNCTION
When the energy stored in the secondary battery is reduced to an extremely low level, the Second Hand will move at2 second intervals instead of 1 second intervals. Recharge the watch as soon as possible by exposing the watch to light.
THE AUTOMATIC COLLECTION
The Automatic Self-Winding mechanical Watch (since it is not operating by battery) must be wound at least six or seven times before you wear it.
After that, your daily activity should wind the watch sufficiently to keep it running at night when it is not being worn. If your normal daily activity is not sufficient, occassional supplementary manual winding may be necessary. It is suggested that your mechanical watch be cleaned and oiled periodically to insure optimum performance. As this is a mechanical watch, quartz watch accuracy cannot be expected.
ADJUSTING THE TIME
- Pull the crown from position 1 to position 2, wind it clockwise or counter clockwise untill it shows the desired time.
After setting the time, push the crown back to position.
ACCELERATING ENERGY OF THE WATCH
Wind the crown clockwise at position 1 untill energy is conserved.

WATER RESISTANCE
- This watch is water resistant to the depth specified on the back of the watch or on the watch face.
DO NOT SUBMERGE IN WATER DEEPER THAN THAT SPECIFIED ON THE CASE BACK OF THE WATCH. - If there are no markings, either on the front dial or case back to indicate water resistance, do not submerge the watch in water.
IF THE WATCH HAS PUSH BUTTONS, DD NOT OPERATE THE PUSH BUTTONS BELOW THE SURFACE OF THE WATER. - Should water or condensation appear in the watch, immediately have the watch checked. Water can corrode electronic parts inside the case. Water resistant watches are tested to be resistant between 3-5 atmospheres (100-165 feet).
NOTE: Over time, the gaskets of the case may become worn and reduce the water resistance of the watch. A trained specialist should change the gasket and the 0-ring every time the battery is changed. To avoid any unwanted condensation, watches of all specifications (water resistant or not) should not be exposed to extreme temperatures such as cold or heat.
Professional jewelers and watch retailers are best equipped to replace the battery in your watch without damage to the watch case and movement inside. They have specialized tools and experience to do the job properly. Inexperienced people can scar the case and damage the water resistant seal, voiding your warranty.
It is important to recycle your watch battery in an environmentally safe way. Watch batteries contain very small amounts of mercury, which is required to prevent corrosion of the battery and damage to your watch. There is no danger to you or your watch from the mercury because it is in the sealed battery, non the less batteries should be disposed of properly. Your professional watch/jewelry retailer is the best person to do this for you. These professionals collect used batteries and recycle them through licensed waste management companies.
Do our environment and your watch a favor, ask your watch or jewelry professional to replace your battery when it expires.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
Replace the batteries when the watch becomes slow or does not operate. It is not necessary to return your watch to Armitron for battery replacement. It is recommended that you bring your watch to a local jeweler. Should you choose to change your watch battery please remember these important facts:
