Setting your watch correctly
To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
• Release the crown by turning it to the left.
• Wind the movement until it is fully wound (about 40 revolutions of the
crown).
• Pull the crown out to position 1.
• Turn the crown to the right to advance the date display a day at a time.
Set the display to yesterday's date.
• Pull the crown out to position 2. This will stop the movement. To set the
time accurately to the second, it is best to stop the movement as the
seconds hand passes over 60.
• Turn the hands forward until the date display changes to today's date.
The hands will now be positioned between 12 midnight and 1 am.
• Now turn the hands forward 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 watch movement.
• Now push the crown to position X and secure it by simultaneously
turning it to the right.
Important: Although the watch is water-resistant in positions 0, 1 and 2, the
crown should always be screwed in again for normal use (position X).
Reading the time in the dark
Both the dial and the hour and minute hands of your watch have lumi -
nescent elements that allow you to read the time effortlessly even in total
darkness.
