To set the TIME:
1. Pull crown out to position 3; watch (small seconds hand S) stops.
NOTE: If crown is pulled to position 3 while chronograph is running,
timing will stop.
2. Turn crown in either direction to set hour H and minute M hands
to desired time taking AM/PM into account.
3. Push crown back in to position 1; watch restarts.
To set the DATE:
1. Pull crown out to position 2.
2. Turn crown clockwise to set date J.
NOTE: Date indicator hand D will automatically advance to match

CAUTION: Do not set date J/D when hour and minute hands
are between 9:00 PM and 12:30 AM; doing so could damage the
calendar mechanism. If you must reset date during those hours,
first move hour and minute hands to any time outside that period,
reset the date, and then reset hands to correct time.
3. Push crown back in to position 1.
