Configuration et bobinage initial
Your Spinnaker Hull SP-5088-05 is an automatic mechanical watch. It is powered by the motion of your wrist and does not require a battery. For initial setup or if the watch has stopped, follow these steps:
- Dévissez la couronne : The crown is located on the side of the watch case. Gently unscrew it counter-clockwise until it springs free from the case. This is the winding position (Position 0).
- Remontage manuel : In Position 0, turn the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times. This will provide enough power reserve to start the watch. You should feel a slight resistance as you wind.
- Définir la date: Pull the crown out to the first click (Position 1). Turn the crown either clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust the date. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. If the current time falls within this period, first set the time outside this window, then set the date, and finally reset the time.
- Régler l'heure : Pull the crown out to the second click (Position 2). The second hand will stop. Turn the crown to set the hour and minute hands. To ensure accurate time setting, synchronize with a reliable time source. Push the crown back in to restart the second hand.
- Sécuriser la Couronne : Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into the case and screw it down clockwise firmly until it is tight. This ensures the watch's water resistance.

Utiliser votre montre
Mouvement automatique
Once initially wound, your watch will continue to run as long as it is worn regularly. The rotor inside the watch winds the mainspring with the natural motion of your arm. If the watch is not worn for an extended period (typically 40-48 hours, depending on the power reserve), it will stop and require manual winding to restart.
Lunette tournante unidirectionnelle
The Spinnaker Hull SP-5088-05 features a unidirectional rotating bezel. This bezel is designed for timing events, particularly dives. To use it:
- Rotate the bezel counter-clockwise to align the zero marker with the minute hand.
- L'aiguille des minutes indiquera alors le temps écoulé sur l'échelle de la lunette.
- The unidirectional design prevents accidental clockwise rotation, which could falsely indicate less elapsed time during a dive, enhancing safety.
Résistance à l'eau (300 mètres / 1000 pieds)
This watch is rated for 300 meters (30 ATM) of water resistance, making it suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports, but not for saturation diving. Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before exposing the watch to water. Do not operate the crown or pushers (if present) while the watch is wet or submerged.

Entretien et soins
- Nettoyage: Wipe the watch case and crystal with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the crown is fully screwed down. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Entretien des bracelets en cuir : The leather strap is susceptible to damage from water, sweat, and direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. If the strap gets wet, dry it gently with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat. Regular cleaning with a specialized leather cleaner can help maintain its condition.
- Évitez les températures extrêmes : Do not expose your watch to sudden temperature changes or extreme heat/cold, as this can affect the movement and seals.
- Champs magnétiques : Keep your watch away from strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, refrigerators, certain electronic devices) as magnetism can affect the accuracy of mechanical movements.
- Entretien: Mechanical watches benefit from periodic servicing, typically every 3-5 years, to ensure optimal performance and lubrication of the movement. Contact an authorized service center for professional maintenance.
Dépannage
| Problème | Cause possible | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| La montre s'est arrêtée ou fonctionne lentement. | Réserve de marche insuffisante (pas assez portée ou non remontée manuellement). | Manually wind the watch by unscrewing the crown and turning it clockwise 30-40 times. Wear the watch regularly. |
| Le changement de date a lieu à midi au lieu de minuit. | Le réglage AM/PM est incorrect. | Avancez l'heure de 12 heures. |
| La montre fonctionne constamment trop vite ou trop lentement. | Exposure to magnetic fields, impact, or requires regulation. | Demagnetize the watch or have it regulated by an authorized service center. Avoid strong magnetic fields. |
| Humidité sous le cristal. | Crown not fully screwed down, damaged gasket, or extreme temperature change. | Apportez immédiatement la montre à un centre de service agréé. N'essayez pas de la sécher vous-même. |
