FAQs

What is the power reserve of the F6922 movement?

The movement offers approximately 40 hours of power reserve when fully wound.

Is the bezel unidirectional?

Yes, it features a standard unidirectional rotating bezel common on professional dive watches to track elapsed time.

Can I replace the bracelet with a leather strap?

Yes, the watch uses standard lugs, allowing you to easily swap the stainless steel bracelet for a leather or rubber strap of the appropriate width.

How often should I have the watch serviced?

Mechanical watches typically benefit from professional servicing every 3 to 5 years to ensure movement longevity.

Is the crown a screw-down type?

Yes, the watch is equipped with a secure screw-down crown to maintain its 200m water resistance rating.

Troubleshooting

Watch stopped ticking

If the watch has been stationary for over 40 hours, manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise in the neutral position to restart the mainspring.

Date is changing at noon instead of midnight

The movement is set 12 hours out of sync. Pull the crown out to the time-setting position, advance the time by 12 hours, then reset the date.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable sapphire crystal for scratch protection
  • Reliable, in-house automatic mechanical movement
  • Professional 200m water resistance rating
  • Versatile design suitable for both formal and active settings

Cons

  • 42mm case may be too large for some wearers
  • Limited edition availability may be hard to find in the future
  • Stainless steel bracelet weight may be noticeable during all-day wear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set the time, unscrew the crown by turning it counter-clockwise until it pops out to the second click. Pull the crown to the first click to adjust the day and date by rotating it gently. Once set, push the crown in and screw it down firmly clockwise to ensure the water-tight seal is engaged. For care, rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to prevent mineral buildup on the bracelet pins. While the stainless steel is resilient, it is recommended to store the watch in a dry environment away from strong magnetic fields, which can affect the accuracy of the mechanical movement.
