About Alain Silberstein 

Alain Silberstein Founded in 1990 in Besançon, the brand by Alain Silberstein and Sylvie. The company specializes in watches with modern luxury designs. Alan Silberstein, an architect and interior designer himself, immediately received great acclaim for his outstanding and bold designs.

Silberstein's timepieces are known for their signature use of the three basic colors (red, blue, and yellow); Silberstein was the first designer to create a sapphire crystal case and is also known for making fun high-end timepieces in limited colors and unconventional materials pioneers. In addition, he often uses different materials and different treatments in an extremely delicate combination.

As can be seen from their collections, his French flair brought a little fun to the Swiss watchmaking world. Sadly, the Silberstein Company is now defunct, making the pieces we have even rarer and more collectible.

If you cannot find your watch model (or movement) in this watch, you can try to determine your Alain Silberstein winding mode. You should choose the combined winding mode (CW+CCW) and minimum turns per day (TPD). Then place your watch into the gyroscopic watch winder and check after a few days how accurately your watch shows the time. If it runs behind, it is necessary to increase the number of TPD by one step.

Alain Silberstein Watch Time Adjustment Method

- Pull the crown outwards with one push
- Set the watch to the exact local time.
- Push in the crown and turn clockwise until secure.
- Push the crown firmly into position 1 and the watch starts to move.

Some Alain Silberstein watches have a screw-down crown that must be unscrewed to change the time or date. After use, the crown must be pressed against the case and tightened. Otherwise, it will affect the water resistance of the watch.

Can I Always Wind my Watch Manually With the Crown?

It’s okay to do this once in a while, but not too often—especially if your watch has a screw-down crown.
Firstly, with crown winding, the gears and other parts of an automatic movement will wear out faster, as will the screw-in crown system, as it is not designed for frequent use. Self-winding watches should be worn for at least eight hours a day to make the most of their power reserves, so rather than letting your automatic watch's power reserve drain, invest in a simple automatic watch winder.
