InstructIon Manual and Warranty thank you for choosing an invicTa TiMepiece Long ago, we set out to continue Invicta's original 1837 mission ­ to offer magnificent Swiss timepieces at modest prices. In doing so, we gave birth to a movement in the watch industry that is turning the balance of power over to the consumer. we hope you enjoy your new timepiece and carefully read the easy-to-use instructions pertaining to it. By doing so, you will help give it a long life and keep it operating at the high quality standards by which it was crafted. These timepieces have been tested for water resistance. in order to maintain the water resistance, be sure to always close the crown tightly after setting. we also recommend having your timepiece checked every year by a certified watchmaker to ensure the gaskets are in proper condition. This will help to assure the precise operation and longevity of the piece. please refer to our service center information on our web site www.invictawatch.com. IMportant Things To Know Screw Down Crowns: Many invicta watches are equipped with a screw down crown to help prevent water infiltration. This is most common on our Diver models. in order to adjust the date and/or time on such a watch, you must first unscrew the crown before you can gently pull it out to its first or second click stop position (page 3). To do this, simply rotate the crown counterclockwise until it springs open. when you have finished setting the watch, the crown must then be pushed in and screwed back in tightly. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force. Tritnite® Luminous Markers: Tritnite® is an environmentally friendly luminous material used exclusively by invicta. Tritnite® requires 4 ­5 hours of exposure to light for it to glow brightly in the dark. it will continue to perform with regular exposure to light. Quartz, autoMatIc, anD Manual winD waTches A Quartz Watch is battery powered and does not require winding. eventually the battery will need to be replaced. An Automatic Watch is a mechanical watch that winds itself and does not require a battery. when worn daily, the movement of your wrist causes the mainspring to wind progressively, eliminating the need for additional winding. To start your automatic, you can hand wind it by rotating the crown clockwise a number of turns while in its normal operating position (screw down crowns will need to be unscrewed first), or by swinging it side to side for 30 seconds. we recommend housing an automatic in a watch winder box. A Manual Wind Watch is a mechanical watch that does not require a battery, but can only be wound by hand. To wind it, turn the crown clockwise while it is in its normal operating position until you feel resistance. This type of watch should be wound daily.

Many Invicta watches are equipped with features that go beyond the telling of time and date. these functions are displayed on what are called subdials, indicators, counters or zones. your watch may have one or more of these. Knowing them will be useful when identifying which instructions pertain to your watch. ! PLeASe NoTe . since dial designs and shapes vary, not all subdials are perfectly round, or positioned in the same place. whaT Does This IndIcate? Small Seconds: an alternate to the sweeping center second hand, this counter makes a continuous rotation, measuring out 60-seconds. Hours: a chronograph function that displays hours elapsed, often in 12 one-hour intervals. Minutes: a chronograph function that displays minutes elapsed, often in 30 one-minute intervals (sometimes 60). Tenths of a Second: a chronograph function that displays tenths of a second elapsed. whaT Does This IndIcate? -Hour: often called a gMT or second time zone indicator, the hand of this counter makes a full rotation in a 24-hour period, thereby also indicating whether it is a.m. or p.m. it is often coupled with a sun/Moon display. Sun/Moon: indicates a.m. or p.m. through the display of the sun or moon. it is often coupled with a 24-hour indicator. Moonphase: this display assures near perfect synchronization with the lunation period, and only needs adjusting every two and a half years, should the watch never stop in that time. Power Reserve: found on automatic watches, this zone displays the hours of autonomy remaining of a movement after it has reached its winding peak. Diver's Scale: mainly found on the turning bezel of a diver watch, it allows a diver to preset the time submerged in minutes. it is sometimes found beneath the watch crystal, and can be turned by a pusher at the 9 o'clock position. whaT Does This IndIcate? Tachymeter: also called a tachometer, it allows to measure the speed of travel over a given distance. it is frequently used to determine the speed of a car over a measured distance. which InstructIons shoulD i reaD?

With few exceptions, Invicta chronographs tell the time, date and include three subsidiary dials. these dials are often referred to as sub-dials, indicators, counters, eyes or zones. typically, they measure minutes, seconds and tenths of a second. the sub-dials that measure minutes and tenths of a second are part of the stopwatch feature. the sub-dial that measures 60 seconds is in a constant rotation and is also known as the small seconds. display Elements Second hand Minute hand Hour hand Minute counter Center stop - second 1/10 sec counter Date chronographs Control Buttons Push Button A 0 1 2 Crown Push Button B chronographs Setting the time and date . after a Battery Change .
