Setting the watch
Position 1:
Winding the watch
Your watch is automatically wound by your wrist
movements.
Important: Before wearing your watch for the
first time and each time it stops, we recommend
manually winding by turning the crown,
in position 1, clockwise (about 45 turns of the
crown are required).
Position 2:
Setting the time
With the crown in position 2, turn the hands
clockwise past 12 o’clock: if the date changes,
it is midnight; if not, it is midday.
Pull the winding crown out to position 2. Turn
the hands clockwise to set the time. Once the
change has been made, push the winding crown
back into position 1.
Setting the date, month and year
Press the pushbutton on the side of the case at 2 o’clock using the corrector push-rod, 1 press equates to a
change of date.
Setting the day
In position 1, press the corrector at 9 o’clock using the corrector push-rod; 1 press equates to 1 day.
Moon phase setting
In position 1, press the corrector at 4 o’clock using the corrector push-rod; 30 presses equate to 1 moon phase.
Recommendation of use
Do not set the calendar of your watch between 6:00PM and 3:00AM. This may cause damages in the
movement. Do not set the date of your watch via the time-setting function; be sure to use exclusively the
dedicated date corrector.
