Can I wear my watch in the shower?
No, as a general rule it is advisable to avoid wearing your watch in the shower.
The steam produced by hot showers adversely affects the rubber case seals (gaskets) and increases the possibility of condensation and water penetrating the watch case which can cause permanent damage to the movement and watch. It will also reduce the longevity and general effectiveness of the rubber watch seals (gaskets).
How to operate a screw down crown?
Many of the PANZERA watch models use a screw down crown to ensure added water resistance as well as reduce the possibility of damage to the crown and crown stem. For these models it is critical that the crown is always screwed firmly into the case when not adjusting the time or powering the watch.
View this short clip for a demonstration: https://vimeo.com/252632186
Can I shake my watch to power it and make it run?
No.
At all times avoid shaking, extended vibration or impact to the watch as it can cause permanent damage to the movement?
How to power my watch?
To power your watch, use the crown (winder knob) by rotating it in a clockwise direction at least 40 full rotations for full power equivalent to approximately 40 hours of continuous operation. You cannot over power the watch so it is ok to continue winding beyond 40 rotations.
If you wear your watch throughout the day the automatic rotor contained in your watch movement will rotate with the movement of your wrist. This gentle movement of the automatic rotor will ensure that the power in your watch is maintained to at least the level that you achieved by winding the watch with the crown.
Can I use an automatic watch winder when not wearing my watch?
Yes depending on the model you have. An automatic watch winder is a box that is used to automatically rotate your watch when it is not being worn to maintain the accumulated level of power inside the watch.
The following models can be used with an automatic watch winder:
Flieger 47 – All models
Breuer 44 – All models
Breuer 42 – All models
Aquamarine 45 – All models
*Set your watch winder to turn in an anti clockwise direction for the above models
Models that cannot be used with an automatic watch winder:
Breuer 47 – All models
Time and Date Change Warning – Important!
Never change the Date setting on a mechanical watch between 11pm – 3:30am as the date wheel inside your watch movement has begun the cycle of moving to the next day. Changes during this time can cause permanent damage to the movement and is not covered under warranty. For this reason it is also recommended to avoid time changes during this period where possible. Always ensure when adjusting the time that you move the hands in a forward (clock-wise) direction.
Is my watch water resistant and what does this mean?
Yes, depending on the model of your watch.
Aquamarine 45 = 200m (20ATM)
Flieger 47 = 50m (5 ATM)
Breuer 42 = 30m (3 ATM)
Breuer 44 = 50m (5 ATM)
Breuer 47 = 30m (3 ATM)
The activities that can be performed at different water resistant levels are outlined in the chart below:
Can I wear my watch whilst playing sport?
A mechanical watch is a precise instrument and contains many delicate moving parts. Therefore it is not advisable to wear a mechanical watch when carrying out sport or other activities where there is the possibility of prolonged vibration or sudden impact. These factors can cause permanent damage to the watch movement.
Electromagnetic Interference Warning – Important!
Avoid contact with electro magnetic fields such as clock radios, stereo speakers, microwave ovens and other items that produce magnetic fields as they can interfere with the accuracy of your watch and in some cases cause permanent damage to the movement.
If your watch is running noticeably fast it is possible that it has come into contact with an electro-magnetic field. In this situation please follow the steps below to rectify this issue:
- Allow the watch to fully power down.
- Reset the time and fully power the watch
- Observe the time over the next 1-2 days
If the issue is not resolved after following the above procedure the watch can be de-magnetised by any reputable watch repairer. The process to professionally demagnetise a watch is very simple and takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute to perform. The watch should then be observed for at least one day to test.
