Moon Phases
The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle during which it
appears to wax and wane due to how the Sun illuminates the
Moon and the relative positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun.
The greater the angular distance between the Moon and the
Sun,
*
the more of the Moon we see illuminated.
*
The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the
Sun is visible from the Earth.

The Moon phase indicator shows the Moon as viewed at noon
from a position in the Northern Hemisphere looking south. Note
that at times the image shown by the Moon phase indicator may
differ from that of the actual Moon in your area.
•
The left-right orientation of the Moon phase is reversed when viewing
from the Southern Hemisphere or from a point near the equator.
Adjusting the Moon phase
1. Pull the crown out to the first click.
2. Rotate the crown away from you until there is nothing visible in
the Moon phase indicator (moon age of 0).
3. Slowly rotate the crown away from you again until the Moon
phase indicator shows the correct Moon phase.
•
For details about Moon phases, see “Moon Phase Indicator”
above.
4. Push the crown back in to the normal position.
■
Avoid setting the day-date between 8:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m.
(If you do, the day-date setting may not change in the following day).

For watch with the elapsed time bezel
Rotate the elapsed time bezel to align the
mark with the minute hand.
After certain amount of time elapsed, read the
graduation on the elapsed time bezel which
the minute hand points to.
The elapsed time is indicated.
•
Some water resistant models are equipped
with a screw lock crown.
•
With such models, you must unscrew the
crown in the direction noted in the illustration to
loosen it before you can pull it out. Do not pull
too forcibly on such crowns.
•
Also note that such watches are not water
resistant while their crowns are loosened. Be
sure to screw the crowns back in as far as they
will go after making any setting.
