Useful user manual info.

Hello all,
I’m not normally one to pour over thick user manuals but I found some good info from my sbgj203g manual. I’d heard about resting the watch in different positions but winding at a set time was something new to me.
Regards

That’s a pretty cool little manual with useful information

I had read about how the power reserve affects accuracy, and I think that has to do with why the manual says you have to wind the watch at the same time.

Basically, some watches (idk if all) are more accurate on a certain part of the power reserve

Say, for example, a watch might be the most accurate it can be, when the power reserve is between 60% and 80%

Like that

So I can see why winding your watch at the same time will help it keep reliable accuracy.
