How to set the time and date

  First, set the date. Pull out the crown to the first click. The second hand keeps 

moving.

  Turn the crown until the previous 

day’s date appears.

  Pull out the crown to the second 

click when the second hand is at the 
12 o’clock position. The second 
hand stops on the spot. Turn the 
crown to advance the hands until the 
desired date appears.

  When setting the hour hand, check 

that a.m./p.m. is correctly set, as the date is designed to change once in 24 
hours.

 

  Due to the mechanism of the quartz watch, to set the time accurately, first turn 

the minute hand 4 to 5 minutes ahead of the desired time and then return it to 
the correct time.

  Push the crown back into the normal 

position in accordance with a time 
signal. The watch immediately starts 
moving.

CAUTION

You may not be able to set the date when the time on your watch is between 
midnight and 1:00 a.m. due to the mechanism of the watch. This is not a 
malfunction.
Please refrain from setting the date and/or day during this time.

Date adjustment at the end of the month

It is necessary to adjust the date after February (which has 28 days, 29 days in 
a leap year) and a 30 day month.

Ex.

To adjust the date in the a.m. period on 
the first day of a month following a 30-
day month
The watch displays “31” instead of “1”. 
Pull out the crown to the first click. Turn 
the crown to set the date to “1”.

Instantly changing date

This watch is able to change the date indication instantly between 0:00 a.m. 
and 0:05 a.m. In case of conventional quartz watches, the date indication 
changes gradually between 9:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m.
