Configuració inicial

Enrotllant el rellotge

Your Gevril Columbus Circle watch is an automatic timepiece. If the watch has stopped or has not been worn for an extended period, it will need to be manually wound to initiate power reserve.

1. Ensure the crown is in position 1 (fully pushed in, against the case).
2. Turn the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will build up a sufficient power reserve to start the watch.
3. Once started, the watch will continue to wind itself through the natural motion of your wrist while worn.

Setting Time and Date/Day

To set the time, day, and date on your watch:

1. Configuració de l'hora: Pull the crown out to position 3 (farthest out). Turn the crown to move the hands clockwise until the correct time is displayed. Ensure you pass 12 o'clock to correctly set AM/PM for the date change. Push the crown back to position 1.
2. Configuració de la data: Pull the crown out to position 2 (middle position). Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the movement) to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this is when the date change mechanism is engaged and could cause damage. If the current time falls within this window, first adjust the time outside this window, set the date, then reset the time. Push the crown back to position 1.
3. Configuració del dia: The day display is typically synchronized with the date and time. If it needs adjustment, it may be linked to the date setting or require advancing the time through 24-hour cycles until the correct day is shown. Refer to the specific movement instructions if further adjustment is needed beyond the crown's date function. Push the crown back to position 1.

Funcionament

Moviment automàtic

Your watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement. This means it does not require a battery. The movement of your wrist causes an oscillating weight (rotor) inside the watch to spin, winding the mainspring and storing energy. When fully wound, the watch typically has a power reserve of 38-42 hours. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop and need to be manually wound as described in the "Initial Setup" section.

Day and Date Display

The dial features concentric rings for the day and date. The outermost ring displays the days of the week, while an inner ring shows the date. A stationary disk at the center displays astrological symbols, which are part of the watch's aesthetic design. The day and date will advance automatically at midnight.

Cura i Manteniment

Resistència a l'aigua

Your Gevril Columbus Circle watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This rating means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, such as during recreational swimming. It is no suitable for diving, snorkeling, or high-impact water sports. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet.

Neteja

To maintain the appearance of your watch, clean it regularly.

• For the case and metal bracelet, use a soft, damp cloth. A mild soap solution can be used if necessary, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying thoroughly.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or ultrasonic cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish or internal components.
• Ensure the watch is completely dry before wearing it again.

Emmagatzematge

Quan no porteu el rellotge, guardeu-lo en un lloc fresc i sec, allunyat de la llum solar directa, temperatures extremes i camps magnètics forts. La caixa original del rellotge és ideal per emmagatzemar-lo.

Resolució de problemes

Mira que no corre o perd temps

• Reserva d'energia insuficient: As an automatic watch, it requires motion to stay wound. If it has stopped, manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise 20-30 times while it's in position 1.
• Lack of Wear: If you do not wear the watch daily, or if your activity level is low, it may not receive enough motion to maintain its power reserve. Consider using a watch winder if you frequently take off your watch for extended periods.
• Camps magnètics: Exposure to strong magnetic fields (e.g., from speakers, certain electronics) can affect the accuracy of mechanical watches. If you suspect magnetization, consult a professional watchmaker for demagnetization.
• Impacte: A severe impact can affect the delicate internal mechanisms. If the watch has suffered a fall or strong blow and is no longer functioning correctly, professional inspection is recommended.

Date/Day Not Changing Correctly

• Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle. The date and day typically advance around midnight.
• Avoid manually adjusting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
