ETTING THE TIME
1. Unscrew the winding crown (A) and pull it out to the second click (position 2) .
2. Ensure that the local time hour hand (B) is superimposed on the second
time zone hand (F) . If this is not the case, return the winding crown (A) to
the first click (position 1) . In this position the local time hour hand (B)
moves forwards or backwards in steps of one hour. Make the local time
hour hand
(B) coincide with that of the second time zone (F) . Then return
the winding crown (A) to the second click (position 2) to set the correct
time.
3. Pay attention that the hand (G) in the small seconds dial (E) indicates if the
local time is antemeridian or postmeridian. If this is not the case, move the
local time hour hand
(B) until the hand (G) will be positioned in the correct
side (AM or PM) of the small seconds dial (E) . If, for example, it is 3 o’clock
in the afternoon, check that the hand (G) is in the left part (PM) of it. Then
set the correct time.
4. Push back the winding crown (A) to the initial position (0) and screw it down
again.
For a rapid change of the time, pull out the winding crown (A) to the first click
(position 1) . In this position the hour hand (B) moves forwards or backwards
in steps of one hour without moving the minute hand (C) .

HE SECONDS RESET DEVICE
The little continuous seconds dial (E) is located at 9 o’clock. When the winding
crown (A) is pulled out to the second click (position 2) , the small seconds
hand immediately returns to zero. The seconds reset device is an extremely
accurate way of synchronising the watch with the reference time signal.
Note: at the moment that the seconds reset device comes into operation, the
seconds hand is zeroed and the balance is stopped. If the crown should
inadvertently be pulled out to
position 2 for a long time, the precise setting of
the time must be carried out again.

INDING THE WATCH
1. Unscrew the winding crown (A) and, keeping it in the initial position, that is,
without pulling it out (position 0) , and turn it clockwise until the power
reserve indicator (L) on the dial reaches the fully-wound position indicated
by the symbol . When the power reserve reaches the fully-
wound position, the minimum power reserve of the movement is 8 days.
After this period has elapsed, the indicator is positioned on the ‘empty’
symbol
but the watch has a minimum remaining power
reserve that permits it to continue working. However, to ensure an ideal
movement rate, it is recommended to wind the watch before the indicator
goes beyond the ‘empty’ symbol described above.
2. Screw the winding crown (A) down again.
