THE HEART OF THE 
GMT-MASTER II MODEL

2. Setting the date and the local time
(crown in position 2
):

To set the date and the local time, follow 
the steps in the order given:
– Pull the crown out to the first notch.
– Set the date by turning the crown in 

either direction. The hour hand moves  
in increments of one hour. The date 
changes when the hour hand passes 
midnight, in either direction, after two  
complete turns around the dial.

– Set the local time by turning the crown 

in either direction. The hour hand 
moves in increments of one hour.  
Be aware of the difference between 
noon and midnight (the date changes 
as the hour hand passes midnight). 

– Push in and then screw down the 

crown.

The local time is identical to the reference 
time (24-hour hand) if the wearer is 
currently located in his reference zone.  
It can be easily adjusted when travelling.
