To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
– Release the crown by turning it to the left.
– Wind the movement (approximately 20 revolutions of the crown).
– Pull out the crown to position 1.
– Turn the crown to the right to advance the date display in steps.
Set the display to yesterday’s date.
– Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the movement.
To set the time accurately to the second, it is best to stop the
movement as the seconds hand passes 60.
– Turn the hands forwards until the date display changes to
today’s date. The hands will now be positioned between
12 midnight and 1 a.m.
– Now turn the hands forwards to the correct time. If you are
setting the watch in the afternoon, you must turn the hands past
12 (noon) again.
– Push the crown back to position 0 to start the movement.
– Now push the crown to position X and secure it by
simultaneously turning it to the right.
Important:
The watch is water-resistant in positions 0, 1 and 2
as long as the crown is not moved. The crown should generally
always be screwed in for normal use to ensure the stability of the
seal and to protect the winding mechanism.
