1. Main Features
This watch is an analog quartz watch equipped with a thermoelectric generation
function that drives the watch by converting body heat (heat energy), produced
when wearing the watch on the wrist, into electrical energy.
Power is generated when the watch is worn on the wrist and the second hand is
moving at 1-second intervals. When the watch is removed from the wrist, the
second hand moves at 10-second intervals, indicating that power is not being
generated.
When fully charged, the watch will run continuously for about six months without
charging. To fully charge the watch after it has stopped due to insufficient charge
requires about 15 days (continuous charging). To ensure optimal usefulness,
make sure that the watch is always sufficiently charged.
This watch uses a secondary battery for storing the electrical energy that is
generated. This secondary battery is completely free of mercury or other haz-
ardous substances. It does not have to be replaced periodically in the manner of
conventional watch batteries since it is able to be charged and discharged re-
peatedly.
