3. Podešavanje

3.1. Početno namotavanje

Your Longines watch is equipped with an automatic mechanical movement. If the watch has stopped, it requires initial winding to start. Gently turn the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times while it is in its normal, pushed-in position. This will build up sufficient power reserve.

3.2. Postavljanje vremena

1. Izvucite krunicu u položaj 2 (najudaljeniji položaj). Sekundarna kazaljka će se zaustaviti.
2. Okrenite krunicu u smjeru kazaljke na satu ili suprotno od smjera kazaljke na satu da biste podesili kazaljke za sate i minute na željeno vrijeme.
3. Push the crown back into position 0 (normal operating position) to restart the watch.

3.3. Određivanje datuma

Važno: Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM (21:00 and 03:00) as this can damage the movement. If you need to set the date during this period, first set the time outside this range, adjust the date, then reset the time.

1. Izvucite krunicu u položaj 1 (prvi klik).
2. Turn the crown clockwise to advance the date until the correct date is displayed.
3. Vratite krunu nazad u položaj 0.

3.4. Podešavanje remena

The watch features a leather strap with a buckle. Adjust the strap by selecting the appropriate hole for a comfortable and secure fit on your wrist. Ensure the watch is not too tight, which can restrict circulation, or too loose, which can cause discomfort or damage.

4. Upravljanje satom

4.1. Automatsko kretanje

Your Longines watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement. This means it winds itself through the natural motion of your wrist. When worn regularly (approximately 8-12 hours a day), the watch will maintain its power reserve. If the watch is not worn for an extended period, it will stop and require manual winding as described in Section 3.1.

4.2. Otpornost na vodu

This watch is marked as 'WATER-RESISTANT'. This generally means it is suitable for everyday use and can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is ne designed for swimming, diving, or showering. Always ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet.

Napomena: Water resistance is not a permanent characteristic and may decrease over time due to aging of gaskets or accidental shocks. It is recommended to have the water resistance checked periodically by an authorized service center.

5. Održavanje

5.1. Čišćenje

To clean your watch, use a soft, dry cloth. For the case and metal parts, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using chemical cleaning agents, as they can damage the watch's finish or seals. For the leather strap, avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals; clean with a specialized leather cleaner if necessary.

5.2. Skladištenje

When not wearing your watch, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The original watch box is ideal for storage. If storing for an extended period, consider a watch winder to keep the automatic movement running and lubricated.

5.3. Servisni intervali

Like any precision instrument, your Longines watch requires periodic servicing to ensure its accuracy and longevity. It is recommended to have your watch serviced by an authorized Longines service center every 3 to 5 years. This service typically includes cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment of the movement, as well as replacement of worn gaskets.

5.4. Avoiding Magnetic Fields

Strong magnetic fields can affect the accuracy of mechanical watches. Keep your watch away from strong magnets, such as those found in speakers, refrigerators, and certain electronic devices.

6. Otkrivanje problema

• Sat ne radi: If the watch has stopped, manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise 30-40 times. If it still does not start, or stops shortly after, it may require servicing.
• Datum se ne mijenja: Ensure the time is set correctly, especially the AM/PM cycle. The date typically changes around midnight. If the date is stuck, try manually advancing it using the crown (refer to Section 3.3).
• Netačno mjerenje vremena: Minor variations in timekeeping are normal for mechanical watches. However, if the watch is consistently gaining or losing significant time, it may be magnetized or require adjustment/servicing.
• Kondenzacija pod kristalom: If you notice condensation, it indicates a loss of water resistance. Immediately take the watch to an authorized service center to prevent further damage to the movement.
