1.3.Setting the date and hour hands: Pull the crown out to position 2.

Then turn the crown: the hand moves in 1-hour jumps. If it is necessary to correct the date, (A),

26continue to turn the crown and the date will change automatically when switching from AM to PM, or the contrary, depending on the direction the crown is turned. Then push the crown back to position 1.

Important:

When setting the date, it is essential to check the date. If need be, pass midday (no date change) or midnight (date changes) to make sure the time is set in AM or PM as appropriate.

NB: Corrections in position 3 have no effect on the date, even if the hour hand passes midday or midnight. The watch stores the date in its mem- ory (including whether AM or PM) before the time is reset. Setting the hours, minutes and seconds, around midnight and midday may therefore result in the calendar shifting by 12 hours.

2.Checking and correcting the calendar: month, yearly cycle and date.

2.1.Display and correction of the month.

Press and hold the crown in position 0 for more than 3 seconds, the month will be displayed for 8 seconds,

(B). 1 = January, 2 = February, ..., 12 = December. The month can be corrected during these 8 seconds. Pull the crown out to position 2, turn the hour hand through one full revolution. The month will move forwards or backwards.

Repeat the procedure until the required month is displayed, then put the crown back to position 1.
