The Crown

(ABT, DM, WRKS)

If your watch were a head, this would be its hat. Free of jewelry and other adornments, this crown will enable you to “scroll” from mode to mode

by simply rotating it.

You might have also noticed that the crown can be pushed in and pulled out to four different positions for programming (see Figure1.B). We've made sure that when you reach each position, you'll feel both a tangible click and hear a discernible beep. The two first positions are for more common or “serf” adjustments while the second stops are for

more noble or “royal” adjustments. It's medieval modern.

Your HELIX™ wrist instrument is also equipped with a locking mechanism located at the bottom of the case. This feature will lock your watch into a specific mode in case you bump the crown doing whatever it is you're doing. In other words, if you’re in the chronograph mode timing an event, we wouldn't want you to look at your watch and see that you've accidentally knocked yourself out of the chronograph mode. To activate, simply slide the locking switch to the right. To de-activate, slide back to the left and start “serfing” again.

INDIGLO® Night-light

(ABT, DM, WRKS)

Your new watch is tech. So much so that even the modest sounding ELECTROLUMINESCENT TECHNOLOGY used in the INDIGLO® Night-light had to be

patented (US Patent Number 4,527,096 and 4,775,964) — you know, to keep it out of the “wrong” hands. At night and other low-light conditions, it lights up the entire

face of the watch. You can't just give science like that away.

Anyway, it's activated by pressing the crown all the way in to Position 1 (see Figure 1.B).

NIGHT-MODE® Feature

(ABT, DM, WRKS)

THIS IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT AS INFO ABOVE.

If you aren't wearing your new watch, you should put it on your wrist now. Your watch is equipped with NIGHT-MODE® Feature (US

Patent Number 4,912,688). It enhances our already amazing ELECTROLUMI- NESCENT TECHNOLOGY. Do not fear it.

Pressing and holding the crown in to Position 1 for about four seconds will make your watch beep and activate NIGHT-MODE® Feature which allows any button to illumi-

nate the face for around four seconds — you'll know NIGHT-MODE® Feature is activated by the appearance of a tiny moon icon (see Figure 2) and another beep. To deactivate NIGHT-MODE® Feature, press and hold the crown again for four seconds and you’ll hear another beep. Now it’s deactivated. Okay? Okay.

TIME/DATE

(ABT, DM, WRKS)

Rotate the crown until you get to TIME/DATE mode.

Setting the Time and Date

A. To set the time, pull the crown out to Position 3 (see Figure 1.B) — feel the click and hear the beep. SET TIME will appear. As luck would have it, when you turn the crown forward (clockwise) the time moves forward, and when you turn the crown backward

(counterclockwise) the time moves backward. Turn the crown quickly and time will appear to fly.

B. To set the date, pull the crown out to Position 4 (see Figure 1.B). SET DATE will appear. Rotate crown and you can set the date. Date can be displayed as either

MM-DD or DD-MM. Toggle between the two date formats by pressing either the start/split or stop/reset buttons (see Figure 1.A) while the

crown is in Position 4.
