1. Normal position (wearing posi-
tion): when the crown is positioned
against the case, the crown ensures that
the watch is water-resistant.

not been worn for more than 42 hours or
more, wind it up with the crown in posi-
tion 1.
2. Correcting the date: pull the crown
out to position 2, turn the crown back-
wards and push it back to position 1.
Correcting the 24 hours hand (GMT):

crown forwards, only the hour hand
moves without affecting the precision ot
the minutes or seconds. If the hand moves
past midnight, the date changes auto-
matically. Push the crown back to posi-

The hand setting is effected in the same
manner as for any other watch. That is to
say by pulling the winding crown and then
turning same to the right or to the left.
The date, from the 1st to the 31st is
indicated by the date hand. Every
pressure effected on the push-button
No. A (opp. 4 o'clock) advances date by
one day. If the preceeding month was
shorter than 31 days, the date is also to
be advanced by means of the push-
button.
The months which appear in the window
on the right are adjusted by push-button
No. B (opp. 2 o'clock). Every pressure on
the push-button advances the disc one
month ahead.
The days of the week, from Monday to
Sunday which appear in the window on
the left are adjusted by pushbutton No. D
(opp. 10 0'clock)
The moon phases can be adjusted by
pressing firmly push-button No. 1 (opp. 4
o'clock). The latter has two functions. A
slight pressure advances date hand, a
stronger pressure advances the moon
disc one day ahead.
If your watch has not been used for sev-
eral days, turn the hands until the days
and dates change. At this moment your
watch is set shortly after midnight. It will
then be necessary to still advance the
hands till 6 o'clock. Then you can adjust
the calendar by proceeding in the follow-
ing manner:
a) The moon phases by pressing to the
bottom the push-button No. 1 (opp. 4
o'clock). Advance the disc till full moon
(same position of the moon as shown on
illustration). You may judge afterwards by
means of a calendar the number of days
which have passed since the last full
moon and advance the moon disc by the
same number of day.
b) The date hand push-button No. 1 (opp.
4 o'clock) slight pressure.
c) The days by push-button No. 3 (opp. 10
o'clock)
From now on you can set your watch to
the correct time.
Important: do not use the push-buttons
No. 1 and No. 3 between 22h00 and
05h00 as it is at that moment that the
automatic change takes place.
