3.1 การพันขดลวดเริ่มต้น

Your Orient "Mako-3" watch is equipped with an automatic movement that can also be hand-wound. Before wearing for the first time or after a period of inactivity, it is recommended to hand-wind the watch to build up a power reserve.

1. Unscrew the crown by turning it counter-clockwise until it springs out to the first position (Position 0).
2. หมุนเม็ดมะยมตามเข็มนาฬิกาประมาณ 30-40 ครั้ง เพื่อให้ได้พลังงานเพียงพอสำหรับการเริ่มต้นการทำงานของนาฬิกา
3. Push the crown back in and screw it down tightly clockwise to ensure water resistance.

3.2 การตั้งเวลาและวันที่

วิธีตั้งเวลาและวันที่บนนาฬิกาของคุณ:

1. Unscrew the crown by turning it counter-clockwise until it springs out (Position 0).
2. Gently pull the crown out to the second click (Position 2) to set the time. The second hand will stop (hacking feature).
3. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. To avoid issues with the date change, it is recommended to set the time to 6:00 AM.
4. Push the crown in one click to Position 1 to set the date and day. Turn the crown clockwise to adjust the date and counter-clockwise to adjust the day. Avoid setting the date/day between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM, as this is when the date change mechanism is engaged.
5. Once the date and day are set, pull the crown back out to Position 2. Advance the time past 12:00 PM (noon) if the current time is in the afternoon. Continue setting the correct time.
6. Push the crown back in to Position 0 and screw it down tightly clockwise to ensure water resistance.

3.3 Adjusting Bracelet

The metal bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links. This procedure often requires specialized tools and precision. It is highly recommended to have this adjustment performed by a qualified watchmaker or jeweler to prevent damage to the bracelet or watch.

4. ปฏิบัติการ

4.1 Automatic Movement (Caliber F6922)

Your Orient "Mako-3" watch is powered by an in-house automatic mechanical movement. This means the watch is wound by the motion of your arm while wearing it. When fully wound, the movement has a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop. Simply hand-wind it as described in Section 3.1 or wear it for a few hours to restart it.

4.2 ความสามารถในการกันน้ำ (200 เมตร / 660 ฟุต)

The watch is water resistant to 200 meters (660 feet). This rating indicates suitability for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports. It is crucial to ensure the screw-down crown is fully tightened before any exposure to water to maintain this water resistance. This watch is not designed for saturation diving.

4.3 ขอบหน้าปัดหมุนได้ทิศทางเดียว

The watch features a unidirectional rotating bezel, which is a common tool for divers to measure elapsed time. The bezel rotates only counter-clockwise to prevent accidental increases in measured time, which could be critical during a dive.

1. Align the triangle marker on the bezel with the minute hand at the start of an event (e.g., a dive or cooking time).
2. As time passes, the minute hand will point to the elapsed time on the bezel's scale.

5. การบำรุงรักษา

5.1 การทำความสะอาด

เพื่อรักษารูปลักษณ์ของนาฬิกาของคุณ:

• เช็ดตัวเรือนและกระจกด้วยผ้าแห้งเนื้อนุ่มเป็นประจำ
• For the metal bracelet, use a soft brush and soapy water to clean dirt from between the links. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry completely with a soft cloth. Ensure the crown is screwed down before cleaning with water.

5.2 พื้นที่จัดเก็บ

When not wearing your watch for an extended period, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields. The original watch box (Figure 5.1) is ideal for storage.

5.3 การบริการตามระยะเวลา

Like any precision mechanical instrument, your watch requires periodic servicing to ensure optimal performance and longevity. It is recommended to have your watch inspected and serviced by an authorized Orient service center every 3-5 years.
