PREPARING THE WATCH FOR USE
WINDING – TIME-SETTING
Nota bene: mechanical watches endowed with a date, day,
month or moon-phase indicator are equipped with a complex
mechanism that is set into motion between 8 pm and 3 am. It is
therefore vital to avoid adjusting the calendar or moving the
time backwards during this period.
1. Unscrew the water-resistant crown in an anti-clock-
wise direction. Wind the watch by 40 clockwise
turns of the crown.
2. Pull the crown out to position 2, turn it clockwise to
adjust the calendar to the day prior to the date
when it is set into operation.
3. Pull the crown out to position 3. t urn the hands so
as to make the calendar jump once when the hands
pass through midnight. t hen adjust the hour and
minute.
4. Push the crown back to position 1. Press it gently,
turning it gently in a clockwise direction, then
tighten it again until you feel some resistance. Do
not force!
