PRECIDRIVE GMT Quartz

WWW.CERTINA.COM 359_EN / 03.173/3

This reference time was used for much of the 20th Century, before being replaced by the more precise Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), in 1972.

Though regularly used as a synonym of UTC+0 due to its similarity, GMT is different since it is measured as a function of the Earth's rotation,

whereas UTC uses atomic clock technology.

In the world of watchmaking, the acronym GMT is used when a watch has a second time zone display on its dial; you can choose the one you want.

Technical information

Winding

Quartz watches do not need to be wound.

PRECIDRIVE

PRECIDRIVE quartz watches, from CERTINA®, can boast not only the incomparable precision of quartz, but also their temperature variation compensated

(thermo-compensated) rate, as well as being insensitive to moisture. This enables them to achieve a precision of around +/-10 seconds per year (under normal

conditions of use).

EOL function - (End of Life)

When the seconds hand is jumping every 4 seconds, your chronograph is telling you that the battery has reached its end of life, and will soon need to be

replaced.

Care and maintenance

We would advise you to clean your chronograph regularly (except for the leather strap) using a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water. After immersion in salt

water, rinse it in fresh water and leave it to dry completely.

Do not leave it anywhere subjected to high variations in temperature or humidity, direct sunlight or strong magnetic ﬁelds.

We would advise you to have your watch inspected every 3 to 4 years by an approved CERTINA® representative or retailer. To enjoy impeccable maintenance

service and ensure the guarantee remains valid, always consult an approved CERTINA® representative or retailer.

If you plan not to wear your chronograph for several weeks or months, we would advise you to store it with the crown pulled out to position III.

This cuts the electrical power supply to the motor, thereby extending battery life considerably.

Replacing the battery

The autonomy of a PRECIDRIVE chronograph from CERTINA® is generally more than 2 years in continuous use. Once the battery has been drained, it must be

replaced without delay by an approved CERTINA®

representative or retailer.

Battery type: silver oxide and zinc button cell, 1.55 V, No. 371, SR 920 SW.
