Setting the time
Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the move-
ment. For setting the time accurately to the second, it is
best to bring the movement to a stop as the seconds hand
passes over 60. You should now move the minute hand a
few minute lines beyond the time to be set.
Then position the minute hand by moving it gently back-
wards until it is exactly above the correct minute line.
By adopting this procedure, you will ensure that the
minute hand begins to move without any delay when you
restart the movement. To start the seconds hand, push in
the crown to position 0. When setting the time, please be
aware of the date change, which always takes place at
midnight (24.00). If this change has already taken place
at 12.00 noon, you must turn the hands forwards through
12 hours.
Important: Although the watch is water-resistant in posi-
tions 0, 1 and 2, the crown must nevertheless always be
screwed down again for normal use (position X).
Reading the time in the dark
The dial as well as the hour and minute hands of your
watch are provided with luminous elements which permit
the time to be read without problem, even in total
darkness. The luminous element at 12.00 serves as a
reference point.
