MECHANICAL WRISTWATCH WITH SELF-WINDING
MOVEMENT
NOTE: Your watch will have either a «pull-out» or
«screw-down» crown. To determine this, gently try to
pull out the crown to position 2. If it does so, your
watch has a pull-out crown.
If not, use the thumb and forefinger to apply mild
pressure on the crown while rotating toward you to
release it. If it does so, your watch has a screw-down
crown. Turn crown towards you to release.
After use, push the crown back to position 1, then
press and screw down the crown (to ensure a tight
seal).
WINDING:
The watch is wound automatically when worn on the wrist. If the
watch is not worn often enough, the movement will have to be
wound manually by turning the crown away from you at least twen-
ty times in position 1.

SETTING THE TIME:

1. Wind the movement if necessary.
2. Pull out the crown into position 3. The seconds
hand will stop.

position of the hands corresponds to a change of
date at midnight and not at noon.
Turn the crown to pre-position the hands on the
desired time.
4. Push the crown back down firmly against the case
in position 1. The watch will begin to run again
instantly.
