Precautions for diving （Please make sure to observe the following.）
■ Before diving
Before diving, check the following:
1
The time is correctly set.
2
The Direct Drive indicator hand shows the level of remaining power not less
than one day （above the D indicator
）. If the remaining power shows less
than one day, manually wind the mainspring to generate electrical energy.
3
The rotating bezel turns smoothly. （The bezel
rotation must not be too loose or too tight.）

■ After diving
Rinse the watch in fresh water to
wash out all seawater and wipe it
thoroughly dry to prevent rust.
Please follow the care instructions below after diving.
■ While diving
This watch can withstand water-resistant to 20
ATMOSHERES（water pressure to a depth of 200meters
）.
Do not operate the crown and
button in the water.
Take car e not to bu mp t h e wa tch
against hard objects such as rocks
Bezel rotation may become slightly harder
in the water but this is not a malfunction.
Please observe the following cautions for use.
