3. Once wound, proceed to set the time.

4.2 וואַסער קעגנשטעל

Your watch is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). This means it is suitable for swimming and snorkeling, but not for 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, as this can compromise the water resistance.
