SETTING THE 

OYSTER PERPETUAL SUBMARINER

Screwed-down position 

(position 0)

The crown is completely screwed down 
against the case. When the crown 
is in this position, the Oyster Perpetual 
Submariner is guaranteed waterproof 
to a depth of 300 metres (1,000 feet).

Manual winding 

(position 1)

The crown is unscrewed. To wind the 
watch manually, turn the crown 
clockwise; turning in the other direction 
has no effect. When setting the watch 
for the first time or after the watch 
has stopped, complete a minimum 
of 25 turns for partial winding.

Setting the time 

(position 2)

The crown is unscrewed and pulled out 
to the first notch. The seconds hand 
is stopped, allowing you to set the 
time to the precise second. To set the 
hour and minute, turn the crown in 
either direction.
