Charging time for 1 day of operation: Time required for charging the watch to run for 1
day at normal hand movement.
Full charging time: Time required for maximally charging the watch when it is stopped
due to being insufficiently charged.
[NOTE] The watch will continue to run for about 6 months without additional charging
once it has been fully charged. The watch will continue to keep time for about
2 years when the power save function is operating. However, once the watch
has stopped as a result of being insufficiently charged, a considerable amount
of time is required until it starts to run again as indicated in the table above. It
is therefore recommended to charge your watch everyday. Furthermore, it is
recommended to charge your watch by exposing to direct sunlight once a
month.
