Your Certina DS Action Diver watch comes securely packaged. Carefully remove the watch from its box and inspect it for any visible damage. Keep the original packaging for future storage or transport.

2. Înfășurarea inițială
The Powermatic 80 movement is an automatic mechanical movement. While it self-winds with wrist motion, it is recommended to manually wind the watch upon first use or after it has stopped due to lack of wear. To do this:
- Unscrew the crown (position 0) by turning it counter-clockwise.
- Gently turn the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will build up a sufficient power reserve to start the watch.
- Screw the crown back in tightly to ensure water resistance.
3. Setarea orei și datei

- Position 1 (Date Setting): Pull the crown out to the first click. Turn the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement.
- Poziția 2 (Setarea orei): Pull the crown out to the second click. The seconds hand will stop. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. To ensure accuracy, synchronize with a reliable time source.
- Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into position 0 and screw it in tightly to maintain the watch's water resistance.
4. Ajustarea brățării
The titanium bracelet features a double-locking foldover clasp for secure wear. For optimal comfort and safety, the bracelet should fit snugly but not too tightly on your wrist. Adjustments, such as adding or removing links, should be performed by a qualified watchmaker or an authorized Certina service center to prevent damage to the bracelet or clasp.

Utilizarea ceasului
1. Automatic Movement (Powermatic 80)
Your watch is equipped with a Powermatic 80 automatic movement, which means it is powered by the natural motion of your wrist. When worn regularly, the watch will continuously wind itself. The Powermatic 80 movement offers an impressive power reserve of up to 80 hours when fully wound, allowing the watch to remain accurate even after being unworn for several days.
2. Water Resistance and Diving Use
The Certina DS Action Diver is water-resistant up to 300 meters (990 feet), making it suitable for professional diving and serious water sports. To maintain this water resistance, ensure the crown is always screwed down tightly against the case before any contact with water. Do not operate the crown or pushers (if present on other models) while the watch is submerged or wet.

3. Unidirectional Rotating Bezel
The watch features a unidirectional rotating bezel, a crucial tool for divers. It can be rotated counter-clockwise to mark elapsed time underwater. Before diving, align the bezel's zero marker with the minute hand. The elapsed time can then be read from the bezel. The unidirectional design prevents accidental increases in dive time, enhancing safety.
Întreţinere
1. Curatenie
To keep your watch in excellent condition, clean it regularly. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case and bracelet. For watches exposed to saltwater, rinse them thoroughly with fresh water after each use and dry with a soft cloth. Ensure the crown is screwed down tightly before rinsing.
2. Intervale de service
Like any precision instrument, your Certina watch requires periodic professional servicing to ensure its accuracy and water resistance. It is recommended to have your watch serviced every 3 to 5 years by an authorized Certina service center. This service typically includes cleaning, lubrication, and replacement of worn components and seals.
3. Depozitare
When not wearing your watch, store it in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields. The original watch box provides excellent protection.
