Tips on more accurate time setting
Keep in mind the following points in order to set the time more accurately.
1. Before setting the time, wind the mainspring sufficiently until the power reserve
indicator shows the fully-wound state.
. When starting to use a watch after it stops, wind the mainspring sufficiently and
wait approximately 0 seconds after the small second hand starts to move, then
pull the crown out to the second click.
. Do not stop the small second hand movement for 0 minutes or longer while the
crown is at the second click position. If the stoppage of the small second hand
movement exceeds 0 minutes, push the crown back in to restart the small second
hand, wait at least 0 seconds, and then carry out the time setting once again.

Also, adjust the date at this point if necessary.
The moment the date changes is midnight. When setting the
hour hand, be sure that AM/PM is set correctly.
Turn the crown slowly, checking that the hour hand moves in
one-hour increments.
When adjusting the hour hand, the other hands may move
slightly. However, this is not a malfunction.
● How to set the date
This watch is designed so that the date changes one day by turning the hour hand
two full rotations in the same way as " the time difference adjustment function".
The date advances one day by turning the hour hand two full rotations clockwise, while
the date is set back one day by turning the hour hand two full rotations counterclockwise.
After setting the time, it is necessary to set the date. Manual date adjustment is
required on the first day after a month that has less than 1 days.
1. Pull out the crown to the first click.
. Each time the hour hand makes two full rotations by turning the crown, the
date is adjusted one day.
