To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
– Always wind the watch fully, to the point at which you feel a distinct resistance in the
crown.
– Pull out the crown to position 1.
– Check the Internet to find out the date of the last full moon. Set the date display to
that date by turning the crown to the left.
– Turn the crown to the right to advance the moon phase display until the full moon can
be seen in the dial opening at "12 o'clock".
– Now make as many corrections, both to the right and to the left, as correspond to the
difference in the number of days between yesterday's date and the date of the last full
moon. The watch should now display yesterday's date and yesterday's moon phase.
– Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the movement. To set the time accur
ately to the second, it is best to stop the movement as the seconds hand passes 60.
– Turn the hands forwards until the date display and the moon phase display change to
today's date. The hands will now be positioned between 12 midnight and 1 a.m.
– Now turn the hands forwards beyond the approximate time. Then move them back
wards to the correct time. If you are setting the watch in the afternoon, you must turn
the hands past 12 (noon) again.
– Push the crown back to position 0 to start the movement.
The power reserve display is divided into 8 days with continuous display. The marking
in the area of the last 2 days tells you that the power reserve is about to expire. You
should then wind the watch, since the precision can be reduced in this area.
