OPERATING THE SCREW-DOWN CROWN In order to pull the crown out to the first or second locking position, it must first be unscrewed. CROWN POSITIONS The TSOVET screw-down crown has four positions: To open the crown, simply turn the crown counter-clockwise 4 to 5 turns. One: Screwed down (closed): The crown of your watch is ready to wear and is moisture resistant. To close the crown and screw it down, push it in while turning clockwise; lightly finger-tighten the crown. BE SURE TO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE CROWN!

By over tightening the crown, the materials and related components (seals & gaskets) can be damaged, resulting in reduced moisture resistance.

The crown of your watch is unscrewed and is not moisture resistant. Four: Unscrewed, with crown pulled out to the second notch (open): to set the date.

DIVERS SCALE Located on the turning bezel of the SVT-DW44 dive watch. Unidirectional Rotating Bezel: The most important feature of any divers watch and an essential part of every divers equipment is the diving ring. This is a rotating bezel around the dial or the crystal. It is divided into minutes and often has a triangular fluorescent marking at 12. Before divers take to the water, they have calculated the time they can spend under water. The diving time depends on the depth and the amount of oxygen taken down. When a diver has 45 minutes of air and enters the water at 14:00 hours, the triangular marking has to be set 45 minutes later, in this case at 14:45. The minute hand has a similar triangle as the diving ring. When both markings meet it is time to surface because air is running out. TACHOMETER Specifc models feature a Tachometer, or Tachymeter, which is simply a function on a watch that allows the user to measure speed. A Tachometer is a feature found on some chronograph watches that measures the speed at which the wearer has traveled over a measured distance. In matchmaking, it is a timer or chronograph with a graduated dial on which speed can be read off in kilometers per hour or other units of distance. 16 TSOVET.COM TSOVET.COM 17
