AIRBOSS MACH 3 - SPECIAL QUARTZ CHRONOGRAPH

SPECIFICITIES

To  facilitate the use of the of the Airboss Mach 3, two original fea-
tures have been developed:

A. Enlargement of the two subdials for easier legibility
B. Placement of the chrono push-buttons on the left side of the case 

for easy Start/Stop by the thumb.

The crown C has three positions which affect push button functions:

• Position 1: Normal position. Push-buttons: chronograph functions.
• Position 2: Quick correction of time-zones (hour hand). 

Date corrections by passing through 24h. 
Push-button B (at 10 o’clock): Initialization of the timer hand (60
minute counter). 
Push-button A (at 8 o’clock): Initialization of the 12 hour counter.

• Position 3: Time setting, stopping of the movement (storage).

Push-button B: Initialization of the 1/10 seconds counter. 
Push-button A: initialization of the 60 second counter.
