A★Star Guide — Watch Adjustment & Care / Watch Adjustment & Care Guide

🇫🇷 French below · 🇬🇧 English below

🇫🇷 Adjusting your bracelet (kit included)

Every A★Star watch comes with its adjustment kit: pin pusher, hammer and holder. Allow 2 to 5 minutes the first time.

  1. Measure your wrist and count the number of links to remove (1 link ≈ 1 cm).
  2. Locate the arrows on the back of the links: they indicate the direction in which the pins should be removed.
  3. Place the bracelet on the holder, position the pin pusher on the pin, and tap gently.
  4. Remove the link(s), then reinsert the pin by tapping in the opposite direction of the arrows.

🇫🇷 Winding and setting your automatic watch

Your watch features an NH35 automatic movement: it winds with the movement of your wrist (48-hour power reserve). If it has stopped: unscrew the crown (if it is a screw-down crown), turn it gently 20 to 30 times, set the date (intermediate position), then the time (pulled-out position), and screw the crown back in to ensure water resistance.

🇫🇷 Care

Avoid strong magnetic fields (speakers, magnets), rinse with fresh water after swimming in the sea or pool (crown screwed in!), and wipe with a microfiber cloth. 2-year warranty — any issues? Write to us.
