SERVICE THE HEART OF THE
GMT-MASTER II MODEL
COMPLETE SETTING OF THE WATCH
IS CARRIED OUT BY FOLLOWING THE
TWO STEPS IN THE ORDER GIVEN:
1. Setting the reference time
(crown in position 3):
To set the reference time, follow the
steps in the order given:
– Unscrew the crown and then pull it
out to the second notch. The seconds
hand is stopped, allowing you to set
the time to the precise second.
– Put the bezel in the neutral position
(triangle on the bezel aligned with the
12 o’clock marker on the dial).
– Set the reference time using the
24-hour hand (against the graduations
on the bezel) and the minute hand
(against the graduations on the dial)
by turning the crown in either direction.
Setting the reference time also moves
the conventional hour hand (local time).
For this reason, the reference time must
be set before setting the local time.
