Acknowledgements

Thank you for choosing a chronograph from TISSOT

, a Swiss brand among the most highly renowned in the world. Meticulously assembled using high quality

materials and components, it is protected against impacts, temperature variations, water and dust.

This manual applies to TISSOT

GMT quartz chronographs with G10 movement. For the settings and operation of your chronograph, please refer to the

instructions corresponding to your model.

Your chronograph allows you to time events lasting up to 12 hours, and offers you the following functions:

– Standard chronograph START–STOP function

– ADD function (partial times)

– SPLIT function (intermediate times)

To ensure that your chronograph operates with perfect precision for many years to come, we advise you to pay careful attention to the advice given in this

manual.

Settings

Models with screw-down crown

To ensure even better water resistance, some models are ﬁtted with a screw-down crown. Before setting the time or date, you must ﬁrst unscrew the crown

to position IB, before pulling it out to position II or III.

Important: After each operation, you must always screw the crown back down to ensure that your watch remains water-resistant.

Setting the time

Pull the crown out to position III and turn it clockwise or anticlockwise to set the desired time. To synchronise the small second hand at the 6 o'clock position

with an ofﬁcial time signal (radio/ TV/Internet), pull the crown out to position III and the hand will stop. Once the time has synchronised, push the crown back

into position I (and tighten it back down on models with screw-down crown).

Winding

Quartz watches do not need to be wound.

Rapid date correction

Pull the crown out to position II and turn it anticlockwise until the desired date is displayed.

Tachymeter (according to model)

The tachymeter allows you to measure the speed of an object moving at a constant speed. Start timing and then stop once a distance of 1 km has been reached,

the chronograph hand will be pointing to a number on the tachymeter scale indicating the speed in km/h.

Reading the GMT

The GMT counter has an hour hand, which gives you a second time zone on your watch.

Time readout: 15:00 (as per example in Fig. 5)

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 TISSOT

representative or retailer. To enjoy impeccable maintenance

service and ensure the guarantee remains valid, always consult an approved TISSOT

representative or retailer.

TISSOT

quartz chronographs have the incomparable precision of quartz. Their power reserve is usually more than 2 years in continuous use. 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

Once the battery has been drained, it must be replaced without delay by an approved TISSOT

representative or retailer.

Battery type: silver oxide and zinc button cell, 1.55 V, No. 394, SR 936 SW.
