How to proceed
- Set the hour and minute according to the instructions above (local time).
- Crown C (one single position, not pulled out) moves the city disc: turn the
crown either way in order to display the city which corresponds to your local
time next to the numeral ‘6’ on the dial (i.e. at 6 o’clock).
- The 24-hour ring will now display the same time as your local time opposite
the number ‘6’ and therefore opposite the reference city which you placed in
this position.
Once this pre-setting is completed:
- The city disc will not move.
- The 24-hour ring will turn in unison with local time (the time in your refer-
ence city), but will go round the dial once in 24 hours. The time in each city
will be updated in accordance with the local time.
- You can thus read whenever you wish the time in any of the cities indicated
on the city disc by reading the hour opposite the relevant city on the 24-hour
ring, and the central minute hand.
- If you move into another time-zone, the operation will need to be repeated
so as to display at 6 o’clock the new reference city corresponding to the new
time zone.

If time is set at 5 o’clock, you will
see that the 24-hour ring displays
‘5’ opposite the city at 6 o’clock
2 hours later, at 7 o’clock, you will
see that the 24-hour ring has moved
forward, indicating ‘7’ opposite the city
at 6 o’clock. You can read the time
in all time-zones simultaneously.
