The exact operation varies depending on the model. Basically, the following applies:

• First position (crown pushed in): Manual winding of the watch.
• Second position (crown slightly pulled out): Setting the date and special functions such as the GMT display (if available).
• Third position (crown fully pulled out): Setting the time.

Detailed instructions can be found in the user manual for your watch. If you have specific questions about your model, please refer to the product page or contact our customer service.

The power reserve of your DAVOSA watch is between 38 and 56 hours in motion when it is fully wound. If you do not wear your watch, a watch winder is recommended to keep the mechanism active.

DAVOSA offers an international guarantee of 2 years from the date of purchase. This guarantee covers material and manufacturing defects. The exact conditions can be found in the guarantee booklet enclosed with your watch.

The guarantee applies to defects in material and workmanship. Damage caused by improper handling, normal wear and tear, accidents or self-repairs are excluded from the warranty.

Yes, mechanical watches can be affected by strong magnetic fields (e.g. from loudspeakers, mobile phones or electric motors). A magnetic field can slow down the movement or even bring it to a standstill by temporarily magnetising the fine components inside the watch. An authorised service partner can treat your watch with a demagnetising device. This process is simple, quick and returns the movement to its normal state.

Regular maintenance every 3 to 5 years is recommended, especially for mechanical models. During this maintenance, the watch is cleaned, oiled and checked to ensure long-term functionality.

Avoid extreme temperatures and strong magnetic fields. Protect your watch from knocks and drops. Clean the case and strap regularly with a soft cloth. Have the seals and water resistance checked every 2 years.
