3)  Now pull the crown out one additional ‘click’ to the Calendar setting position. The Function hand will 

move to indicate the leap year set in memory.  The positions are as follows: 

 

-‘LY’= indicates the current year is a leap year 
-‘+1’ indicates 1 year past a leap year 
-‘+2’ indicates 2 years past a leap year 
-‘+3’ indicates 3 years past a leap year 
 
Turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to set the correct leap year position.

memory. Turn the crown clockwise to set the current month. 

 
5)  Press and release the upper right button again. The Function hand will move to the “SUN” position 

indicating the date can be set. Turning the crown clockwise once, will make the function hand go around 
four times and advance the date by one day, while turning the crown counterclockwise will similarly 
move the date backward by a day. Repeat this action until the date is set to the current date. 

 

6)  Press and release the upper right button again. The Function hand will move to the day of the week 

stored in memory. Turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to set the current day of the week.
