winding crown
The winding crown is used to wind the watch
(position 1) and to set the time (position 2). If your
watch has a screw-down crown (Aquanaut mod-
els), it must be unscrewed before you can wind
the watch.
winding
Your watch incorporates a self-winding movement.
The movements of your wrist set a centrifugal mass
in motion; this tensions the mainspring which
stores the energy. When you take off your fully
wound watch, it will continue to run for up to
45 hours. When it has stopped after depleting the
power reserve, it can be rewound by hand (about
10 clockwise turns of the crown). Please wind the
watch before you put it on. This way, you can avoid
lateral pressure on the winding stem which in the
course of the years could damage the stem tube.

basic setting
The reference time for your Travel Time is the
time at home, where you normally live or work.

hour hands and to display the same color in the
day/night indicator apertures at 3 o'clock (HOME)
and at 9 o'clock (LOCAL). Now, you can pull the
crown, and move the hands clockwise or coun-
terclockwise until they indicate the current time.
The day/night indicator in the round aperture at
3 o'clock (HOME) lets you check whether you have
