HOW TO SET THE TIME, DAY AND DATE (FOR CAL. 6R21)

•  Check that the watch is operating, and then set the time, day and date. 
•  The watch is provided with a day and date function and is designed so that the 

day and date changes once every 4 hours.  The date changes around 1 o’clock 

midnight, and the day around :00 a.m.  If AM/PM is not properly set, the date 

will change around 1 o’clock noon, and the day around :00 p.m.

1.  Pull out the crown to the first click.  (The second 

hand  continues  moving  and  the  accuracy  of  the 

watch is unimpaired.)

.  The  day  can  be  set  by  turning  the  crown  clock-

wise.

.  The  date  can  be  set  by  turning  the  crown  coun-

terclockwise.  Turn it until the previous day’s date 

appears.

Ex.) If today is the 6th of the month, first set the date 

  

 

to  “” by turning the crown counterclockwise. 

CAUTION

•  Do not set the date between :0 p.m. and :00 a.m.  If you do, the date 

may not change properly / it may cause a malfunction. 

4.  Pull out the crown to the second click when the second hand is at the 1 o’clock 

position.  (The second hand stops on the spot.)

 

Turn the crown to advance the hands until the date changes to the next.  The time 

is now set for the a.m. period.  Advance the hands to set the correct time.

.  Push the crown back in to the normal position in accordance with a time signal.
