Configuració

Configuració de l'hora i la data

1. Desenrosqueu la corona (si escau): If your watch has a screw-down crown, gently unscrew it counter-clockwise until it springs out to position 1.
2. Position 1 (Winding): In this position, you can manually wind the watch by turning the crown clockwise. Wind approximately 20-30 times to initiate power reserve if the watch has stopped.
3. Position 2 (Date/Weekday Setting): Pull the crown out one more click to position 2.
• Gireu la corona en sentit horari per ajustar la data.
• Turn the crown counter-clockwise to adjust the weekday.
• Note: Avoid setting the date or weekday between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. If the current time falls within this window, first set the time outside this period, then adjust the date/weekday, and finally set the correct time.
4. Position 3 (Time Setting): Pull the crown out to its outermost position (position 3). Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. Advance the hands past 12 o'clock to determine if it is AM or PM (the date will change at midnight).
5. Empenyeu i cargoleu la corona: Once the time, date, and weekday are set, push the crown back into position 0. If it's a screw-down crown, gently push it in and screw it clockwise until it is securely tightened against the case to maintain water resistance.

Operating the Automatic Movement

Your Bauhaus Aviation watch is equipped with an automatic movement, Caliber 8285. This movement is self-winding, meaning it gains power from the motion of your wrist during wear.

• Initial Winding: If the watch has stopped, manually wind it using the crown (as described in Setup) to provide an initial power reserve.
• Desgast diari: Wearing the watch for approximately 8-10 hours a day will typically keep it fully wound.
• Reserva d'energia: When fully wound, the watch has a power reserve that allows it to run for a certain period (typically 38-42 hours) when not worn. If left unworn for an extended period, it will stop and require manual winding or wearing to restart.

Manteniment

Resistència a l'aigua

The watch is water-protected to 5 ATM (50 meters), tested according to DIN standard 8310. This means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is no suitable for swimming, showering, or diving. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in and, if applicable, screwed down to maintain water resistance.
