SETTING THE TImE

Pos C.

10 minutes = 1 crown movement
    = 1 sec of manipulation 

INTRODUCTION 

This function allows the time shown on your watch to be set using the crown.

IMPORTANT

•  Moving  the  microfluids  within  the  capillary

3

  should  be  approached  with  as  much 

caution as setting a perpetual calendar or a minute repeater

•  We highly recommend that the fluid is only moved 10 minutes with each movement 

of the crown

•  This should mean that moving the fluid a full hour takes no more than 12 seconds.

HOW TO USE

•  Unscrew the crown and pull it out to position “C”

•  Then turn the crown in either direction until the coloured liquid (hour display) and the 

minute hand is at the time required

•  Push the crown in completely against the case

•  Do not forget to screw in the crown completely to ensure its water resistance.

RETROGRADE

•  The  automatic  return  of  the  coloured  liquid 

(retrograde)

is allowed by the pressure of the two 

bellows

2

. The speed is higher when the retrograde

4

 

starts  in  “Zone  II”  and  is  minimal  when  the  liquid 
approaches its starting point in “Zone I”.

Zone I

Zone II
