BEZEL THIRD TIME ZONE A third time zone can be displayed by using the rotatable bezel and the 24-hour hand. It is based on the reference time. To display the third time zone, turn the bezel clockwise for a negative time difference or anticlockwise for a positive time difference according to the time difference between the local time (24-hour hand) and the time in the desired time zone.

YEMA: • Ensure that the crown is perfectly screwed down after winding up the movement and/or setting the time and the date. Once the crown is fully screwed down against the case, your YEMA watch is guaranteed waterproof.
