Mechanical Pocket Watch Instructions
Note: Although the mechanical movements used in National watches will run for over 40 hours on a full wind, it is best to wind daily.
Winding Instructions:
Wind by turning the crown in the clockwise direction until it feels tight. This
is usually about 20-30 half turns. Once crown is too tight to turn, winding
is complete. Do not over wind (continue to wind once tight) your watch, as it
may damage or break the stem.
Setting Instructions:
To set the time, simply pull the crown to the setting position and rotate hands
to the desired position. Push the crown back in once the hand position is achieved.
