NOTE: Under normal conditions,
receive radio signals to automatically update the time and calen-
dar. There may be conditions in which the radio signal cannot be
received. If a signal cannot be received, the watch will operate
normally, but not sync with the radio signal.
NOTE: After a complete loss of charge or an abnormal display
or function is noticed, an ALL RESET PROCEDURE and 0-PO-
SITIONING CHECK AND CORRECTION is required. Be sure
to set the time and date after performing these procedures.
RADIO RECEPTION
The watch will receive radio signals both automatically and on-
demand. Both the time and calendar will update based on the
current time zone.
Automatic reception occurs first at 2:00 a.m., 3 a.m. and then if
needed, at 4:00 a.m. If the 2:00 a.m. or 3:00 a.m. reception is suc-
cessful, subsequent reception attempts will not be activated.
The "on-demand" feature allows the user to enter the reception
mode at his/her convenience. This is helpful when changing time
zones before the automatic update or if an automatic update was
not successful.
NOTE: Based on signal strength, it can take up to 15 minutes to
complete the radio reception update process. During the update
process, the watch must not be moved otherwise the transmis-
sion signal may be interrupted resulting in an unsuccessful
time/calendar update.
Special note regarding MOVEMENT CALIBER H145.
Movement Caliber H145 features an option to manually
override automatic SMT (daylight savings time) during the
radio update process.This manual override precludes SMT from
automatically being adjusted during a radio signal update. If
this manual override has been engaged but is not desired, you
must perform an ALL RESET and 0-POSITIONING to clear
the settings
ALL RESET AND 0-POSITIONING
PROCEDURE
NOTE: The upper right button (B) will be recessed in the case.
The lower right button (A) may be recessed as well, depending
on your model. You will need a narrow pointed object, such as a
wooden toothpick to activate the recessed button(s).
Pull the crown out two 'clicks'.
Press the upper right (B) and lower right (A) but-
tons down simultaneously for 1 to 2 seconds, then
release them. The hands and date will move back
and forth to indicate the ALL RESET is successful.
Rotate the crown in either direction so that the date indicates 1
and is centered in the date window.
Press and release the lower right button (A). The hour hand
will move slightly indicating it is active for setting. Turn the
crown so that the hour hand is pointing towards 12:00
Press and release the lower right button (A). The second hand
will move slightly indicating the minute and second hands may
be set. Rotate the crown in either direction to move the minute
and second hands to the 12:00 position.
This completes the all reset and 0-positioning. The Time and
Calendar must now be set.

TO SET THE TIME AND CALENDAR
NOTE: After receiving a radio signal, the time and date will
automatically set. There may be circumstances however for
which you need to manually set the time and date such as after
an all- reset and 0-positioning.
Pull the crown out one 'click'. Rotate the crown clockwise or
counterclockwise until the second/multi-function hand indicates
the time zone nearest your current location.
Pull the crown one additional 'click' to the time setting posi-
tion. The second/multi-function hand will rotate to the SMT
(daylight savings time) "on" or "off" setting position set in
memory.
Rotate the crown clockwise to activate (turn on) or counter-
clockwise to deactivate (turn off) daylight savings time (SMT)
Press and release the lower right button (A). The second hand
will rotate to the 12:00 position indicating the minute hand is
active for setting.
Rotate the crown in either direction to set the current min-
utes.
NOTE: to activate rapid advancement, quickly spin the crown.
To stop rapid advancement, turn the crown one "click" in either
direction.
NOTE: the second hand will make one complete revolution for
each minute advanced or decremented.
Press and release the lower right button (A). The hour hand will
move slightly indicating it is active for setting.
Rotate the crown to move the hour hand until you see the date
change. This hour shown indicates "AM". Continue to rotate the
crown until the proper "a.m." or "p.m." hour is set.
Press and release the lower right button (A). The date will
move slightly indicating it is active for setting.
Rotate the crown in either direction until the correct date is
shown.
Press and release the lower right button (A). The second hand
will move to the current leap year setting stored in memory.
Rotate the crown to set the proper leap year.
Each hour indice indicates the month, while each minute past
the hour indicates the years past a leap year. As an example, to
set the watch for June, 2 years past the last leap year, turn the
crown so the second hand is at the 32 minutes past the hour
(hour 6 for June, 2 minutes past the "hour" for 2 years past a
leap year. EX:
Months of Year
December
November
October
September
August
July
June
Press and release the lower right button. Rotate the crown to
set the current minute.
Push the crown in two "clicks. This completes setting the time
and calendar.
TO CHANGE TIME ZONES:
Movement Caliber H144:
NOTE: Movement caliber H144 does not "remember" SMT
settings signal region to signal region. Additionally, the radio
updating overrides any manual SMT setting. It is therefore
necessary to check/change SMT settings when changing time
zones.

Pull the crown out one 'click'. Rotate the crown clockwise
or counterclockwise until the second/multi-function hand
indicates the time zone nearest your current location.
Pull the crown one additional 'click' to the time setting
position. The second/multi-function hand will rotate to the
SMT (daylight savings time) "on" or "off" setting position set
in memory.
Rotate the crown clockwise to activate (turn on) or counter-
clockwise to deactivate (turn off) daylight savings time (SMT.)
Push the crown in two "clicks. This completes changing
time zones for movement caliber H144.
MOVEMENT CALIBER H145 :
Once SMT (daylight savings time) is set by radio signal region and
a radio signal is received, movement caliber H145 "remembers SMT
settings. There is no need to manually adjust SMT when changing
time zone settings (within signal regions) as with H144. To change
time zones:
Pull the crown out one 'click'.
Rotate the crown clockwise or counterclockwise until the
second/multi-function hand indicates the time zone nearest
your current location.
If the time zone chosen is in a different radio signal
region such as changing from NYC to LON or you do not
receive a radio signal update:
Pull the crown one additional 'click' to the time setting
position. The second/multi-function hand will rotate to the
SMT (daylight savings time) "on" or "off" setting position set
in memory.
Rotate the crown clockwise to activate (ON) or counter
clockwise to deactivate (OFF) daylight savings time (SMT.)
Push the crown in one 'click'. This completes changing
time zones for movement caliber H145.
TO USE THE SMT (DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME) MANUAL
OVERRIDE FEATURE FOR MOVEMENT CALIBER H145:
Movement Caliber H145 features a manual override so that SMT
(daylight savings time) is not updated by the automatic radio
update feature. To engage the manual override feature:
Pull the crown out one 'click'.
Rotate the crown clockwise or counterclockwise until the
second/multi-function hand indicates the time zone you wish
to override automatic SMT (daylight savings time) updating.
Pull the crown out one additional 'click'.
If SMT setting is currently 'ON':
Rotate the crown counterclockwise to 'OFF.'
If SMT setting is currently 'OFF':
Rotate the crown clockwise to 'ON' then rotate the crown
counterclockwise back to 'OFF.'
Push the crown in two "clicks. SMT updating is now active
for the time zone chosen.
