Your RAYMOND WEIL watch may be fitted with a
screw-down crown. Before setting the time or changing
the date, it is therefore necessary to unscrew the crown
by pulling it straight out and turning it anti-clockwise.
The crown will then be released by a spring. After
completing all settings, press lightly on the crown,
while turning it clockwise, and screw it back in gently
in order to preserve your watch’s water-resistance.
