Day phase
The day phase, shown by the picture of the sun for day
time and the night sky for night time, is linked to the
time of day. It can therefore be set in the same way as
the time after pulling the crown out one click (1).
Moon phase
To adjust the moon phase without risking damage to
the movement, it is essential to position the hands in
the lower part of the dial between 3 and 9 o’clock.
Position the full moon at the center of its aperture by
pressing the corrector X on the side of the case several
times using the Zenith Time Tool. Using a moon cal-
endar, identify the date of the last full moon and count
the number of days between then and the present day.
Press the corrector the same number of times.
Example
It is September 28, 2010. The last full moon was on
September 23rd. The corrector must be pressed 5 times.
The moon phase is now set.
