NOTE: The split time should be read 
immediately, as it continues after 
10 seconds and since the chronograph 
totalizers for hours, minutes and seconds 
continue to measure the elapsed time. While 
the chronograph is running, do not leave the 
split-second hand stopped any longer than 
is necessary to read the split time, otherwise 
the functioning of the split-seconds 
mechanism may be affected.

CHR Ad: Stopwatch with ADD timing 
mode.

Start: Press pusher A.
Stop: Press pusher A again and read off 
time.
Start again: Press pusher A again.
Stop again: Press pusher A again and read 
off time.
Reset to zero: Press pusher B.

QUARTZ CHRONOGRAPH WATCHES 
CALIBERS: 312, 538*, 539, 542

* On certain models these movements have 
no 1/10th of a second counter. In this  
case the timekeeping is precise to 1 second.

THE CROWN HAS 3 POSITIONS

1. Normal position

When pressed in against the case  
(position 1), the crown ensures that the 
watch is water-resistant (if not damaged).

2. To set the date

Pull the crown out to position 2 and set  
the date by moving the hour hand forwards 
or backwards. To adjust by one day, the hour 
hand must be moved by 24 hours. Push 
the crown back to position 1.

To change time zones, summer/winter time
