Setting your watch correctly
Set your watch correctly as follows:
• Release the crown by rotating it to the left.
• Wind the movement until it is fully wound
(about 30 revolutions of the crown).
• Pull the crown to position 2, and this will stop the
movement.
• Rotating the crown to the left causes the day indicator
to change in steps. Set yesterday's day.
• Turn the hands forwards until the date indicator
changes to today's date. The hands will now be posi-
tioned between 0.00 and 1.00 in the morning.
• Now set the precise time by turning the hands for-
wards; in the afternoon, the hands must be turned past
12.00 (noon) once again.
• Pull the crown to position 1.
• Rotating the crown to the right causes the date indi-
cator to change in steps. Set yesterday's date.
• Push the crown back to position 0 to start the watch
movement.
• Now push the crown to position X and secure it by
rotating it to the right at the same time.
