Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set the time on your Bulova automatic watch, pull the crown out to the furthest position and rotate it until the hands indicate the correct time, then push the crown back in securely. Since this is an automatic watch, it is recommended to wear it for at least 8 to 10 hours a day to keep it fully wound. If the watch stops due to non-use, gently shake it or wind the crown manually (if the movement allows) to restart the gear train. Care for the watch by wiping it down regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove sweat and skin oils. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme magnetic fields, such as those near high-powered speakers or medical imaging equipment, as these can interfere with the precision of the mechanical movement. Periodically check that the case back and crown are securely tightened to maintain its longevity.
