Patek Philippe ANNUAL CALENDAR TRAVEL TIME, Manual

Page: 9 / 85

15 14
The day/night indicator in the aperture (HOME)
lets you check whether you have set the correct time
(white = from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.; blue = from 6 p.m. to
6 a.m.). Once you have set the correct time, push the
crown home again. This will also set again in motion
the small seconds hand (stop-seconds function).
Note: In position 3, the two hour hands (home time
and local time ) move simultaneously. If when setting
home time the local hour hand moves forwards beyond
midnight or backwards to before midnight, the calendar
displays will move one day forwards or backwards.
Kindly note that the moon-phase display remains in sync
with home time.
DISPLAY OF A SECOND
TIME ZONE (LOCAL TIME)
WHILE TRAVELING
Before you set a second time zone , check the
day/night indicator (HOME) to make sure that
the two superposed hour hands indicate the cor-
rect time at home and that the day/night indicator
correctly displays daytime or night time hours, for
instance 8 a.m. (white) or 8 p.m. (blue).
To set the local hour hand to display a second
time zone, follow these steps:
- If you are traveling eastbound, pull out the
crown to position 2. Then move the solid hand
clockwise by as many hours as the two time
zones are apart (the local hour hand moves for-
wards by one-hour steps).
- If you are traveling westbound, pull out the
crown to position 2. Then move the solid hand
counterclockwise by as many hours as the two
time zones are apart (the local hour hand moves
backwards by one-hour steps.
