To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
– Release the crown by turning it to the left.
– Wind the movement (approximately 20 revolutions of the crown).
– Pull out the crown to position 1.
– Turn the crown to the right to advance the date display in steps. Set the display to
yesterday's date.
– Turn the crown to the left to advance the day display in steps. Set the display to
yesterday's day.
– Pull out the crown 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 60.
– Turn the hands forwards until the date display changes to today's date. The hands
will now be positioned between 12 midnight and 1 a.m.
– Now turn the hands forwards to the current time. If you are setting the watch in the
afternoon, you must turn the hands past 12 (noon) again. Now move the minute
hand a few minute strokes beyond the time to be set. Then position the minute hand
by moving it gently backwards until it is exactly above the correct minute stroke.
This ensures that the minute hand begins to move immediately when you restart
the movement.
– Push the crown back to position 0 to start the 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).
