Normal position
The Streamliner Flyback Chronograph Automatic
has a screw-in crown. Screwing in the crown
(normal position, position X) ensures that the
time setting cannot be accidentally adjusted
and also provides protection against the ingress
of dirt or water.
The crown can be loosened by turning it anti-
clockwise until it is unscrewed, at which point
it will automatically be in position 0, or the wind-
ing position. The crown can be screwed back in
and re-secured by pushing it into position X and
simultaneously turning it clockwise.
Winding position
In position 0 – the winding position – the Stream-
liner Flyback Chronograph Automatic can be
wound by hand using the crown. To wind your
watch, the crown must be turned clockwise to
tighten the winding spring.
The watch is automatically wound by the rotor,
which works with the movement of your wrist
during wear. However, this feature is dependent
on how long the watch is worn and can vary
depending on the extent of your arm movements.
The time setting position
To reach the position for setting the time, pull
the crown out from the normal position. When
the crown is engaged in position 1, you can set
the minute hand by turning the crown in either
direction. This will move the hour hand that is
linked to the minute hand at the same time. To
restart the movement, push the crown back into
position 0.
Important
In positions 0 and 1, the watch is only water-
resistant to a limited extent. The crown must
therefore always be screwed back in (position X)
for normal wear; this guarantees its full water
resistance of 12 bar.
Reading the time in the dark
Hour hand and minute hand on your watch are
equipped with illuminated elements that enable
you to easily read the time, even in total darkness.
Reading the chronograph
The divisions for the central second stop hand
are positioned around the edge of the dial. This
can be read to the nearest sixth of a second.
This hand completes a full rotation once every
minute. The minute counter jumps one unit
forward every minute.This hand completes a full
rotation once every hour.
Using the chronograph
Start the chronograph by pressing the start-
stop push-button.
Flyback function: While the chronograph is
running, a new measurement can be started
immediately. To do this, press the reset and
flyback push-button. All chronograph hands are
reset and a new measurement is started
immediately after the push-button is released.
Stop the chronograph by pressing the start-stop
push-button. Reset: Press the reset push-but-
ton. This resets all chronograph hands to the
zero position.
