once again after a "stop". Depending on the status of the battery charge, the
watch will inform the user of the need to charge. Parallel to this it will deactivate
high-consumption functions little by little as the battery is used up. The sequence
includes three successive levels:
1. 1
st
level : The seconds hand moves forward in 4-second increments every 4
seconds. The analog and digital times are correctly shown, and the digital
functions and alarms are operational. This happens after 20 to 70 days of use
(according to graph 2), depending on the extent of use of the light and the
alarms (vibration function and buzzer).
2. 2
nd
level : The seconds hand is stopped at 12 o'clock, the high-consumption
functions (light, vibrate and "beeps") are deactivated. With each press on the

with the light – see chapter 7.d), it automatically goes to
analog time (without the seconds) and the digital time are correctly indicated,
the digital functions are operational and the alarms only work with the buzzer.
This state can last a few days.
3. 3

level: Stop the motors by "parking" the hour and minute hands (at 09:14
or 02:47); the seconds hand will remain at 12 o'clock, and the LCD displays
will go out. As a consequence, the watch will go into sleep mode allowing the
synchronization of the hands to be maintained, as well as the correct time and
date in background mode. This state can last for about 30 days, but for any
