How to use the compass (only for models with the

compass bezel or with the compass inner ring)

The compass is functional only within the northern hemisphere, and it may not function properly at lower

latitudes (South of the Tropic of Cancer) depending on the season of the year. Please use the compass in

places where the direction of the sun can be determined.

While keeping the dial level, point the hour hand towards the sun. The direction of south is indicated by the

middle point of the arc between the 12 o’clock marker and the time indicated by the hour hand.

* It is a simple compass and it should not be used to indicate direction with high accuracy.

What is a quartz movement? Verified

Watches and clocks with a quartz movement are driven by a battery. This sends an electric current through quartz crystals that will vibrate. These vibrations are passed on to the movement. Because the vibrations have a fixed frequency, watches and clocks with a quartz movement are extremely precise.
