Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
As an automatic timepiece, the Engineer III Legend II is powered by the motion of the wearer's wrist. If the watch has stopped, manually wind the crown 30-40 times in a clockwise direction until you feel resistance. This will provide an initial power reserve.
Compatibility:
This watch is designed for universal compatibility with standard watch straps if replacement or customization is desired. The automatic movement is inherently compatible with standard timekeeping systems.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and bracelet. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Water Resistance: While rated to 100 meters, it is recommended to avoid prolonged submersion and to have the seals checked periodically, especially after any impact or exposure to extreme temperatures.
- Magnetism: While highly resistant, avoid placing the watch directly on powerful magnetic sources for extended periods.
- Servicing: For optimal performance, an automatic watch typically requires servicing by a qualified watchmaker every 3-5 years.
