Setting your watch correctly
To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
• Release the crown by turning it to the left.
• Wind the movement (approximately 20 revolutions of the crown).
• Pull out the crown to position 1.
• Turn the crown to the right to advance the date display in steps. Set the
dis play to yesterday’s date.
• Turn the crown to the left to advance the day display in steps. Set the dis -
play to yesterday’s day.
• Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the movement. To set the
time accurately to the second, it is best to stop the movement as the
sec onds hand passes 60.
• Turn the hands forwards until the date display changes to today’s date.
The hands will now be positioned between 12 midnight and 1 am.
• Now turn the hands forwards to the current time. If you are setting the
watch in the afternoon, you must turn the hands past 12 (noon) again. Now
move the minute hand a few minute strokes beyond the time to be set.
Then position the minute hand by moving it gently backwards until it is
exactly above the correct minute stroke. This ensures that the minute
hand begins to move immediately when you restart the movement.
• Push the crown back to position 0 to start the movement.
• Now push the crown to position X and secure it by simultaneously turning
it to the right.
Important:
Although the watch is water-resistant in positions 0, 1 and 2, the
crown should always be screwed in again for normal use (position X).
