Operating instructions
Manual & self-winding watch
When the power reserve indica-
tor hand is in the last quarter (fig. 2),
this means that the watch's power
reserve is low. In this case, the watch
should be worn or manually wound to
prevent it from stopping.
During manual winding (crown in posi-
tion 1) or when being worn (self-wind-
ing), the power reserve indicator hand
moves clockwise.
CALIBRES 2202, 2211, 8804, 8805  
CALIBRES 2403, 8421, 8703, 8806, 8807  
The crown has 2 positions:
1. Normal position (wearing position): the crown pushed in
against the case guarantees water resistance.
Occasional winding: if the watch has not been worn for 44 hours
(50h; calibres 8421, 8703, 53h; calibre 2211 and 55h; calibres 8804,
8805, 8806, 8807) or more, wind the watch by turning the crown
whilst in position 1.
Calibre 2211 - manual winding: turn the crown forwards until
it stops (DO NOT OVERWIND).
2. Time setting: hours – minutes. Pull the crown out to position 2.
Turn the crown forwards or backwards. Push the crown back to
position 1.
Calibres 2202, 2403, 8421, 8703, 8804, 8805, 8806 and
8807: synchronise the seconds by pushing the crown back to
position 1 to coincide with a given time signal.

Watch functions:
The crown has 2 positions:
1. Normal position (wearing position): the crown pushed in against
the case guarantees water resistance.
Winding: turn the crown forwards until it stops (DO NOT OVERWIND).
Note: do not wind the watch more often than is necessary. For
a watch that is worn all the time, a single winding each day will
ensure that it functions correctly.
2. Time setting: hours – minutes – seconds. Pull the crown out to
position 2. Turn the crown forwards or backwards. Synchronise the
seconds by pushing the crown back to position 1 to coincide with
a given time signal.
Note: calibres 321, 1861, 1863, 1865, and 1869 do not have a 'stop-
second' mechanism. Therefore, it is not possible to synchronise the
watch to the pip.
Chronograph functions:
• Pusher A: start – stop, start – stop, etc.
Timekeeping with a resolution of 1/5 of a second up to 12 hours for
the calibre 321.
Timekeeping with a resolution of 1/6 of a second for up to 12 hours
for the calibres 1861, 1863, 1865, 1869, 3861 and 3869.
Timekeeping with a resolution of 1/8 of a second up to 30 minutes
for the calibre 3203.
Timekeeping with a resolution of 1/8 of a second up to 12 hours for
