Date setting.
(patented quick setting mechanism)
Ulysse Nardin watches offer a great comfort to the users: quick corrections of the
date can be effected forward and backward.
Important note:
To avoid damaging the gearing mechanism of the movement,
please refrain from correcting in crown position B (quick corrector of date) between
9:00 pm and 3:00 am. We suggest adjusting the hour hand to 6 o’clock before acti-
vating the quick setting device.
Pull the crown into position B. Turn forward or backward until the required date
appears in the window.
Dual time functions.
Pusher 1 (+) Each time the pusher 1 (+) is depressed, the hour hand jumps
exactly one hour forward.
Pusher 2 (–) Each time pusher 2 (–) is depressed, the hour hand jumps exactly
one hour backward. The date indication is synchronized with the
pusher and changes automatically if a time zone adjustment is
made over midnight.
Remarks:
Only press pushers to adjust local time when crown is in position A.
Never activate both pushers together.
Precision.
Precision and average daily rate depend on the activity of the person wearing the
instrument. Violent shocks or knocks – quite common in tennis or golf – should be
avoided to prevent shaking that may loosen certain parts.
Because a mechanical watch is a fine piece of miniature engineering consisting
of well over 100 individual parts, its precision will never match that of a quartz
timepiece.
