Congratulations on your

P/1001 timepiece

Thank you for supporting an independent Danish watch brand. Its our love for the extraordinary machine that drives our concept: recover, recycle, reclaim.

The car that went that extra mile, the bike that made the daring jump, or the plane that flew the impossible mission, each has a story to tell that we want to preserve.

Working with real source material means that your REC watch is a limited experience, true to its original inspiration.

We hope you will enjoy your new timepiece as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Maintenance & Movement Care

Water resistance
Your new REC watch comes with a water resistance rating of 30 meters (3 bar/3 ATM). This basically means it is resilient to splashes, showers and rain. We advise our customers  to avoid sudden pressure changes and do not recommend the watch to be worn for any kind of diving activities. Please be aware the durability and appearance of the strap (ie. leather) may be affected by continuous exposure to water.

Wearing your watch for the first time
Before wearing your new watch for the first time, we recommend fully winding your watch by manual winding before storing away.

The mechanical movement
Vehicles run on gasoline, our watches run on your interaction. What this means is your watch has a Swiss-made all mechanical movement that requires energy from the manual winding. It is completely driven by the mainspring, which is wound by hand. Then, because of the series of gears and other components, this tension is slowly released, driving the tiny gears that are responsible for the watch’s movement – for about 60 hours until the mainspring runs out as can be observed at all time via the power reserve indicator.

The chronograph pushers
If the chronograph does not reset correctly when using the reset/flyback function, ensure the pusher is pressed steadily and firmly. You will feel a distinct tactile engagement, and an audible ‘click’ will confirm the action.

Service and maintenance
In short we recommend that a mechanical movement is serviced around every five years. However if you have any questions or seek assistance in terms of service and maintenance you can reach us easily by info@recwatches.com or at +45 88710890.
