Automatic Winding Movement
A timepiece fitted with an automatic winding movement obtains the
power to wind itself by the movement of your wrist. It is important that
your timepiece is adjusted to match the size of your wrist. A loose fit
may result in a loss in capacity of the timepiece to wind itself. When
fully wound, your timepiece has a power-reserve of approximately 42
hours. If the timepiece has not been worn for over 42 hours it is advised
that it be manually wound to ensure necessary power-reserve.
