Manual & self-winding watch
Operating instructions

NB:
when changing the time zone backwards, it is necessary to
move the hour hand back past 7 pm to ensure the date changes.
3.
Time setting:
hours – minutes – seconds. Pull the crown out to
position 3. The seconds hand will stop. Turn the crown forwards or
backwards. Synchronise the seconds by pushing the crown back to
position 1 to coincide with a given time signal.
Calibres 8934 and 8935 - Power
reserve indicator:
(Indicator at 12 o’clock)
When the watch is fully wound, the
power reserve indicator hand is at the
maximum position (fig. 1).
Over time, the power reserve indicator
hand gradually moves anti-clockwise.
When the power reserve indicator hand
is in the last quarter (fig. 2), this means
that the watch’s power reserve is low.
In this case, the watch should be manu-
ally wound to prevent it from stopping.
During manual winding (crown in posi-
tion 1), the power reserve indicator hand
moves clockwise.

The crown has 3 positions:
1.
Normal position (wearing position):
the crown pushed in
against the case guarantees water resistance.
Occasional winding:
if the watch has not been worn for 55 hours
or more, wind the watch by turning the crown whilst in position 1.
2.
Annual calendar:
pull the crown out to position 2. Turn the crown
forwards to change the date or backwards to change the month.
Push the crown back to position 1.
Note:
the day following 28 or 29 February (depending on whether
it is a leap year), the date needs to be adjusted by one or two days
(crown in position 2). Ideally, the date should be adjusted after
setting the time. When correcting the date between midnight and
10 am, the effort required for the first jump is slightly greater than
for the others.
NB:
do not exit correction mode until the displays (date and month)
are centred in the aperture.
Calibres 8922 and 8923:
do not switch out of correction mode
unless the date is centred in the window and the month hand
centred in the month display.
3.
Time setting:
hours – minutes – seconds. Pull the crown out to
position 3, the seconds hand will stop. Turn the crown forwards or
backwards. Synchronise the seconds by pushing the crown back to
position 1 to coincide with a given time signal.
NB:
when changing the date backwards in time setting mode, it
is necessary to wind the hands back to noon to ensure the date
changes.
