We usually ship your chronograph with a lock in the crown. This ensures that the battery does not discharge unnecessarily during transport. This lock is a small plastic cotter pin. Once you remove it, the crown is in the so-called "second position" - the seconds hand at 6 o'clock does not tick and the crown would not pull out any further.

Turn the crown clockwise, away from you, until the date jumps once. Then continue until the hands are between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. This is how you prevent incorrect operation.

Now push the crown in one position, the second hand at 6 o'clock is now ticking. Turn the crown clockwise until the previous day's date is displayed.

Now pull the crown back to position two and turn it again until the date jumps to the current day. Now you can set the exact time. Then push in the crown.

With the V5, we rely on the Myiota/Citizen 6S20 mecha quartz movement. The company has been supplying us with movements since the beginning and is one of the largest producers of brand watch movements in the world.

The central second hand measures the seconds for the chronograph mechanism. It ticks several times per second and thus enables very precise measurements - unlike a conventional quartz movement, which only registers individual seconds, the 6S20 is able to measure up to tenths of a second.

The entire design and development process took place in Germany, and maintenance and service are also carried out here by watchmakers.

Our partners in production have their main locations in southern China. The industrial heart of the country. During a few visits we were able to convince ourselves of the competence and quality. Many of our partner companies also produce for large companies in Europe. The quality is the best you can expect in this price range. Our watches are manufactured on machines of the highest quality by well-trained watchmakers and industrialists. The final assembly is carried out by a team whose head has been in the industry for decades and has already worked for the big ones.

The quality control is primarily carried out by this Chinese specialist, then again by our watchmakers in Germany and finally just before shipping.

Usually we ship with DHL or UPS. If you have a special request, you are welcome to let us know via the contact form or via a comment in the order.

Shipping within Germany is free of charge. We also offer an express option.
