To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
– Always wind the watch fully to the marking of 8 days on the
power reserve display.
– Pull out the crown to position 1.
– Turn the crown to the left to advance the date display in steps.
Set the display to yesterday's date.
– 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 changes 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 backwards 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 on the side facing the movement is
divided into 8 days with continuous display. The marking in the
area of the last day 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.

As a result of the ever greater prevalence in recent years of very
strong magnets made from rare­earth alloys (e.g. neodymium­
iron­boron) – these are found in objects such as loudspeakers,
mobile phones and fasteners on jewellery as well as handbags –
mechanical watches are increasingly likely to come into contact
with such magnets and become magnetized. This can lead to
the watch rate being permanently affected, a problem that can
only be resolved by a process of demagnetization carried out
by a specialist. We recommend that you keep your watch away
from such magnets.
